American Professional Classic Telecaster
Fender American Professional Classic Telecaster® – The Soul of a Legend, Reimagined
The American Professional Classic Telecaster® is the perfect fusion of vintage Fender® heritage and modern innovation, delivering timeless tone with contemporary performance. Built for players who demand authenticity and versatility, it captures all the spirit of the golden era while evolving to meet today’s professional standards.
Vintage Heart. Modern Edge. Unmistakably Tele®.
At the core of this iconic instrument, Coastline™ ’63 Telecaster® pickups recreate the warm twang, chime, and clarity of classic single coils — slightly overwound for enhanced punch and presence. The Modern “C”-shaped neck, combined with a 9.5" radius fingerboard and medium jumbo frets, ensures effortless playability and smooth, confident performance across the fretboard.
With custom-faded vintage finishes and signature Fender® color options, this Telecaster® radiates a timeless aesthetic that looks as inspiring as it sounds. Staggered ClassicGear™ tuners deliver precise tuning stability while preserving vintage style, and the Greasebucket™ Tone System provides refined tonal control without sacrificing clarity or definition.
