Fender American Professional Telecaster Maple Fingerboard (Natural)

The American Professional Telecaster represents Fender's latest refinement of the electric guitar that defined twang and snap for over seven decades. This Natural finish model with maple fingerboard features the newly developed V-Mod III single-coil pickups, which deliver enhanced articulation while retaining the signature bite and clarity Telecasters are known for. The Deep C neck profile incorporates rolled fingerboard edges and a Super-Natural satin finish, while a redesigned heel contour allows fretting-hand access right up to the highest register.

ClassicGear Precision Potentiometers provide custom torque with precise resistance values and a musical taper for smooth, predictable tone shaping across the entire sweep. The top-load/string-through bridge with compensated brass saddles offers individual string tension adjustment, allowing players to dial in intonation with exceptional accuracy. Each saddle can be positioned independently for optimal setup, whether loading strings through the body for increased sustain or top-mounting for lighter tension and easier bending. The rolled fingerboard edges eliminate sharp corners along the neck profile for fatigue-free playing during extended sessions.
