Description
The Fender American Professional Telecaster Rosewood in Natural 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 a redesigned top-load/string-through bridge and compensated brass saddles for improved intonation and more flexible setup options. Fender also adds Series Mode switching for a thicker, higher-output sound beyond the familiar three-way Tele tones, while tighter-tolerance controls and treble bleed help keep the instrument clear and responsive at lower volume settings. The Natural finish shows off the grain of the Ash body, while a black pickguard, and rosewood fingerboard give this version a clean, understated look that puts the familiar Tele shape front and center, while the updated hardware and electronics are built for serious everyday use.
The Deep "C" maple neck features rolled fingerboard edges, a 9.5" radius, and Fender's "Super-Natural" satin urethane finish for a smooth playing feel. A sculpted heel makes the upper frets easier to reach, while 22 narrow tall frets provide a comfortable platform for chords, bends, and lead playing. V-Mod III Telecaster single-coils retain the twang, snap, and snarl that define a Tele, with enough articulation to stay clear in both clean and driven settings.
The three-saddle bridge can be set up for either top-load or string-through operation, giving players more control over string feel and response. ClassicGear compensated brass Bullet saddles improve intonation and keep adjustments straightforward, while Fender staggered sealed tuners, a bone nut, and Micro-Tilt neck adjustment make the guitar easier to keep dialed in. We think the Natural version is an especially appealing option for players who want a professional Tele with a simple, wood-forward aesthetic.
