Fender American Professional II Telecaster Maple V-Mod II Pickups

Classic Alder Body

The lightweight alder body creates a classic foundational tone. With a smoothly rolled fingerboard edge and a satin neck finish, it's an incredibly comfortable guitar to play.

Fender American Professional II Telecaster Maple Neck

Fast-Playing Maple Neck

The satin-finished maple neck feels slick and fast. The modern Deep C neck profile is comfortable for all playing styles. Narrow-tall frets provide a familiar feel for bends and vibrato, while facilitating effortless fretting. The sculpted neck heel allows unimpeded access to the upper frets.

Fender American Professional II Telecaster Maple V-Mod II Pickups

Twang, Redefined

The V-Mod II Telecaster pickups provide the crisp tone Telecasters are known for—plus even tighter bass, richer mids and smoother highs. These articulate pickups make harmonics sing, and accentuate the snap and snarl. Single notes are round and full, while chordal playing is punchy and defined.

Fender American Professional II Telecaster Maple Bridge

Enhanced Bridge

The new top-load/string-through bridge with compensated “bullet” saddles provides excellent intonation and a variety of setup options. It retains the classic brass saddle tone, while allowing you to tailor the tension and tone of each string to your liking.

Instantly familiar but subtly enhanced, this American Pro II Tele guitar is an excellent choice for guitarists seeking a versatile and comfortable electric with bold and articulate tone.
