Fender American Professional Classic Telecaster

Iconic Telecaster Design

The American Professional Classic Telecaster features a high-gloss alder body that provides the bright, cutting tone Telecasters are famous for. Available in classic finishes including 3-Colour Sunburst, Butterscotch Blonde, Faded Black, Faded Lake Placid Blue, Faded Dakota Red, and Faded Sherwood Green Metallic. Each guitar showcases the simple, functional design that has made the Telecaster a studio and stage staple for over 70 years.

Coastline™ Telecaster Pickups

Equipped with two Coastline™ Telecaster pickups, the American Professional Classic Telecaster delivers pure vintage DNA with added punch, warmth, and clarity. The bridge pickup provides that signature Telecaster bite and clarity, while the neck pickup offers smooth, warm tones perfect for rhythm playing and bluesy leads. These pickups are wound slightly hotter than traditional vintage units for improved output and presence.

Hotshot Telecaster Configuration

The American Professional Classic Hotshot Telecaster adds a middle pickup for expanded tonal options. This three-pickup configuration provides classic Telecaster tones plus additional in-between positions for Stratocaster-like voicings. It's the ultimate versatile Telecaster for players who need maximum tonal flexibility without sacrificing the essential Telecaster character.

Modern "C" Neck Profile

The Modern "C" maple neck profile offers comfortable playability suitable for all playing styles. Paired with a 9.5″ radius rosewood or maple fingerboard, medium jumbo frets, and rolled fingerboard edges, this neck provides smooth, fast action right out of the case. The comfortable profile makes it easy to play everything from intricate chord voicings to fast single-note runs.

Greasebucket™ Tone Circuit

The professional-grade Greasebucket™ tone circuit maintains clarity and definition when rolling off your tone control. This innovative system prevents the muddiness that traditional tone circuits can introduce, keeping your sound tight and focused at any setting. It's particularly effective on Telecaster, where maintaining clarity is essential to the instrument's signature sound.

Classic Telecaster Hardware

Every American Professional Classic Telecaster features staggered ClassicGear™ tuners for reliable tuning stability and a vintage-style three-saddle bridge that delivers authentic Telecaster feel and tone. The traditional string-through-body design enhances resonance and sustain, while the vintage-style appointments provide the classic Telecaster look players love.
