Description
The Fender American Professional Stratocaster Rosewood in Oxblood marks a fresh chapter in Fender's modern professional lineup. You've seen the original American Professional, the American Professional II, and the American Professional Classic. This refreshed American Professional Series brings ta number of meaningful under-the-hood updates, including tighter-tolerance electronics with treble bleed to retain clarity as the volume is rolled back. Its upgraded 2-point tremolo uses a cold-rolled steel block for added sustain and definition, while redesigned saddles keep adjustment screws from protruding into the picking hand. The deep Oxblood finish, black pickguard, and aged white plastics give this version a darker, more distinctive look while keeping the familiar Strat platform intact for gigging, recording, rehearsals, and everyday playing.
The Deep "C" maple neck uses rolled fingerboard edges, a 9.5" radius, and Fender's "Super-Natural" satin urethane finish for an easy-playing feel that stays comfortable over long sessions. A sculpted neck heel improves upper-fret access, and 22 narrow tall frets provide a responsive surface for both chord work and lead playing. V-Mod III Strat single-coils deliver the bell-like top end, warmth, and articulation expected from a strong Strat pickup set, while the familiar five-way switching keeps all of the core sounds immediately accessible.
A two-point synchronized tremolo with a cold-rolled steel block and ClassicGear Radial bent-steel saddles provides smooth pitch control along with simple action and intonation adjustment. Fender staggered sealed tuners, a bone nut, and the asymmetrical Micro-Tilt neck plate make the guitar easier to keep dialed in for consistent performance. We think the Oxblood version is an especially appealing option for players who want the feel of a traditional Strat but prefer a less conventional finish.
