Fender American Professional Telecaster Electric Guitar Maple in Black w/Case - 0111142706

Fender American Professional Telecaster w/Case

Refined Fender playability and broad tonal range centred on two V-Mod III Tele single-coils, a Deep "C" neck and a compensated top-load/string-through bridge, an alder body and a maple fretboard

Built to feel immediately familiar while offering meaningful refinements, the Fender American Professional Telecaster unites an alder body with a maple neck and maple fretboard. Its 25.5" (648 mm) scale, Deep "C" profile and 22 narrow tall frets support a familiar, controlled feel, while the model-specific electronics and hardware are designed to deliver Tele twang, snap and snarl with improved articulation. The result is a versatile American-made instrument intended for regular rehearsal, recording and live use.

Features

Under the fretting hand, a Deep "C" maple neck with rolled fretboard edges and Fender's satin urethane treatment on the back. The sculpted neck heel improves access toward the upper frets, while the 9.5" (241 mm) radius, 22 narrow tall frets and bone nut give the instrument a consistent, performance-minded playing surface.

Plugged in, a pair of V-Mod III single-coil Tele pickups. Their response keeps the twang, snap and snarl associated with the design, while the push-push tone control activates series mode for a thicker alternative voice.

Its bridge and tuning hardware are specified for regular professional use: a 3-saddle top-load/string-through Tele bridge with ClassicGear compensated brass Bullet saddles. It retains traditional brass-saddle character while adding more accurate intonation and the option to tailor string feel through top-load or string-through setup.

Fender's ClassicGear Precision potentiometers provide smooth adjustment and predictable control response during performance. Fender includes a Deluxe Molded Case to protect the instrument between sessions and gigs.
