Description
The Fender American Professional Classic Telecaster Maple in Butterscotch Blonde blends vintage-inspired Tele character with the kind of playability and reliability modern players expect from a professional instrument. Its classic Butterscotch Blonde finish, black pickguard, maple fingerboard, and traditional brass-saddle bridge give it an unmistakably old-school look, while the Modern "C" neck and updated hardware make it a strong fit for gigging, recording, country, rock, blues, and players who want familiar Tele response without being locked into fully vintage specs.
The alder body is paired with a maple neck featuring a Modern "C" profile, satin urethane finish, 9.5" fingerboard radius, and 22 medium jumbo frets. That combination keeps the neck comfortable for chords, bends, and lead work while retaining the straightforward feel players expect from a Telecaster. Coastline '63 Telecaster single-coils provide the punch, sparkle, and attack associated with classic Tele tones, with the Greasebucket Tone System helping tame highs without making the sound muddy when the tone control is rolled back.
A three-saddle vintage-style string-through-body bridge with slotted brass barrel saddles keeps the response direct and traditional, while staggered Fender ClassicGear tuners provide a useful mix of vintage appearance and dependable tuning. The simple master volume, master tone, and three-position switching layout keeps operation immediate onstage and in the studio. We think this American Professional Classic Telecaster is a great choice for players who want golden-era Fender flavor with just enough modern refinement to make it an easy everyday workhorse.
