Fender American Professional II Stratocaster®
The American Professional II Stratocaster® builds on more than sixty years of Fender innovation, delivering a refined and versatile instrument designed for today’s working player. Combining classic Strat tone with modern enhancements, it offers exceptional feel, reliability and performance across any musical setting.
The popular Deep “C”-shaped neck has been enhanced with smooth rolled fingerboard edges, a “Super-Natural” satin finish and a newly sculpted neck heel, providing outstanding comfort and effortless access to the upper frets. At its core, a trio of V-Mod II single-coil Stratocaster pickups delivers improved articulation while retaining the iconic bell-like chime, warmth and clarity that define the Strat sound.
An upgraded 2-point tremolo system with a cold-rolled steel block enhances sustain, resonance and high-end sparkle, while maintaining smooth, expressive vibrato. The addition of a treble bleed circuit ensures your tone stays clear and defined, even when rolling back the volume.
Familiar yet refined, the American Professional II Stratocaster® sets a new standard for modern professional guitars, offering the perfect balance of heritage tone and contemporary performance.

V-MOD II PICKUPS
V-Mod II Stratocaster pickups are voiced specifically for each position, creating a perfectly balanced tone with the vintage warmth and crisp, clear sound that made Fender a legend.
NEW SCULPTED NECK HEEL
The rounded neck heel and beveled neck-plate improve access to the upper register and make leads easy and comfortable.
2-POINT TREMOLO WITH COLD-ROLLED STEEL BLOCK
This Stratocaster features a two-point tremolo bridge with vintage-style saddles for superior tuning stability, tremolo action and ease of adjustment – and the upgraded cold-rolled steel block increases sustain, clarity and high-end sparkle.
DEEP “C” NECK PROFILE WITH ROLLED FINGERBOARD EDGES
Delivering both comfort and speed, the American Professional II Deep “C” neck profile is slim at the nut and fills out gradually as it approaches the neck joint to create a natural feel that’s perfect for chording and single note playing alike. The hand-rolled fingerboard edges and Super-Natural satin finish provide a supremely comfortable feel.
SPECIAL ELECTRONICS
A performance friendly push-push switch on the second tone control activates the neck pickup in switch positions one and two, adding two unique pickup configurations not normally found on a Strat.
ALDER OR ROASTED PINE
This guitar is available in either alder or roasted pine (on select colours). Alder is a classic Fender tonewood with a balanced sound perfect for almost any genre. Roasted pine is a lightweight wood known for punchy and complex tone – upgraded with our roasting treatment, greatly improving resonance.
