Player’s Perspective
From the garage, to the local club, to the stadium/arena, the American Pro Telecaster is the same great best-selling go-to guitar it always has been, and now it’s upgraded with some awesome new V-Mod pickups that are full of vintage tone while still providing a bit more edge and punch from the overwound pickups. The difference is subtle but really cool to add to the versatility of this classic design. The neck shape is familiar and comfortable and the resonance of the guitar is impressive. Whether you’re after rich, creamy leads out of the neck pickup or you’re looking for sheer twang out of the bridge, this Tele is going to take care of you for years and years to come, without a doubt. The ash body on this one brings out a slightly more present high-end treble response.
Special Features
Fender is guided by one clear, simple directive: make life better for musicians. While the original Telecaster certainly did that (and then some), we weren’t content to rest on our laurels. Our team of mad scientists examined every component in near-microscopic detail. If we were able to improve it with a new design or modern materials we did; if it didn’t need improvement, we left it alone. When the wood chips and solder fumes settled, what was left was the American Professional Telecaster—everything you need to play your best. V-Mod Telecaster pickups are engineered with a proprietary blend of alnico magnet types. Each pickup is voiced specifically for its position, creating high-output tone with vintage warmth and the crisp, clear sound that made Fender a legend. Designed for comfort and speed, the new American Professional “Deep C” neck profile sports more substantial shoulders—somewhat between a “Modern C”- and “U”-shaped profile. The increased mass and altered geometry creates a more natural feel that’s perfect for chord and single-note playing alike. Narrow-tall frets are taller and narrower than their medium jumbo cousins, making them especially effective for bending notes and playing chords up the neck with perfect intonation. The treble-bleed circuit maintains the high end when turning down the volume knob to reduce gain, letting your tone shine through, no matter where the instrument’s volume is set.
