The New Fender American Professional II Telecaster Roasted Pine is upon us! The Performer Series received some massive upgrades over the original version including update V Mod Pickups, updated Tele hardware including Brass Bullet Saddles, and a new Deep C neck profile with rolled fingerboard edges. This is the nicest playing guitar Fender can make for the money!
The ultra-playable neck on this upgraded model is made from a piece of maple and topped with a Maple Fingerboard. The neck features a Deep C Profile which has a nice medium size to it. The back of the neck has what Fender calls the Super Natural Finish which simulates the feel of natural wood. It's a satin urethane that is super durable yet thin. A slightly wider nut width than vintage is present at 1.685" along with a 9.5" fingerboard radius, 22 narrow-tall frets, and a bone nut.
The New V Mod II Pickups have been revamped to be more articulate, and maintain their Fender-Esque bell-like quality and chime. A master volume, master tone controls, and a 3-way switch make finding the tone you are looking for easy.
A bevy of cool new colors is available but the Roasted Pine version all come in the same trans natural finish. Pine has a storied past with Fender and it is the perfect replacement for Swamp Ash while supplies of that much-loved tonewood replenish. We were stoked to see Pine as the choice and the few we have seen all sold incredibly fast. Snag one while you can!
Fender keeps building guitars for players. With their eye on offering tons of features for not a whole lot of money, you can easily find the right Fender for whatever your needs may be. Stop by the shop today and see what's new from Fender, all the way from Squier to Fender Custom Shop!
