Boasting an alder body with a gloss urethane finish, this guitar delivers a balanced tonal foundation with a sleek, vintage-inspired aesthetic. Its satin-finished maple neck, securely attached via Fender's time-tested four-bolt construction, offers smooth playability and stability. Outfitted with Coastline '63 single-coil Telecaster pickups in both the bridge and neck positions, this guitar provides a versatile sonic palette, whether you're seeking out warm rhythm tones or classic Tele twang. The three-saddle vintage-style bridge with brass barrel saddles ensures perfect intonation and a comfortable feel. With its elegant design and high-performance features, this elegant Tele is a celebration of Fender's timeless craftsmanship.

Dynamic Coastline Single-Coil Pickups and Greasebucket Tone Circuit

The American Professional Classic Telecaster’s Coastline ’63 single-coil pickups are crafted for expressive, dynamic tone with all the punch and sparkle that define the Tele sound. The bridge pickup delivers sharp, cutting twang ideal for articulate leads, while the neck pickup adds warmth and depth for smooth rhythm work. Together, they produce a balanced blend of clarity and grit that responds beautifully to touch. Enhancing this tonal flexibility, Fender’s Greasebucket tone circuit allows players to roll off highs without adding unwanted bass, preserving definition even at lower tone settings. With a master volume, master tone and three-position toggle switch, this Tele offers intuitive, precise control for any playing style.

Three-Saddle Vintage-Style Bridge for Enhanced Sustain

This elegantly appointed Fender Telecaster features a three-saddle vintage-style bridge with brass barrel saddles, offering a classic look, rock-solid intonation and superior tonal performance. The strings-through-body design increases resonance by transferring vibrations directly into the alder body, resulting in improved sustain and a fuller tonal response. The brass saddles not only enhance the guitar's overall tone but also provide a smoother playing feel by reducing string friction. Whether you're bending your way through hot, twangy licks or delivering tight rhythm work, this bridge design ensures exceptional stability and a vibrant, resonant sound that's distinctly Telecaster.

Comfortable Maple Neck With Smooth Satin Finish

The Modern C maple neck of this Telecaster combines playability and precision, making it ideal for extended jams and marathon studio sessions. With its ultra-silky satin urethane finish, the neck is smooth to the touch, allowing for effortless hand movement along the fretboard. Its four-bolt construction ensures durability and stability, while the 25.5" scale length provides a familiar, responsive feel. Fitted with medium-jumbo frets and a synthetic bone nut, the fretboard provides precise intonation and allows for easy bending across all 22 frets. It's a classic Tele neck design that offers a reliable and comfortable foundation for players of all skill levels.

Built With Durability and Performance in Mind

The Fender American Professional Classic Telecaster is designed to meet the demands of both stage and studio settings. Its alder body offers a lightweight yet resonant build, while the gloss urethane finish provides an extra layer of protection against wear. The nickel/chrome hardware, including the Fender ClassicGear tuning machines, ensures long-term reliability and accurate tuning stability. Additionally, the included deluxe gig bag makes it easy to transport and protect your investment. With its robust materials and thoughtful engineering, this guitar is built to handle the rigors of performance and practice alike.
