Player's Perspective
This American Professional Stratocaster keeps the Strat platform intact while venturing into new sonic territory. While still being able to delve into vintage tones of old, the new V-Mod pickups really are a cool upgrade that allows the guitar to also tackle some more modern sounds with great success. The bridge pickup has a bit more richness and warmth to it which helps get rid of that ice-pick sound that vintage Strat bridge pickups could sometimes have. The guitar feels incredibly familiar and as soon as you pick it up it's like being home again. The treble-bleed cirtuit and new pickups, however, really make your ears perk up as you play through an amp and realize that Fender is not just sitting back on the laurels of their success but rather are truly continuing to pioneer the industry and pump out high quality, innovative offerings at all price points. Special Features
Often copied, but never surpassed, the Stratocaster is arguably the world’s most-loved electric guitar. Electrifying the music world since its debut in 1954, its natural, versatile sound made the Stratocaster the benchmark for exceptional guitar tones. The American Professional Stratocaster isn’t a re-imagining of the classic design; it’s the authentic original model, evolved. V-Mod Stratocaster pickups are engineered using a proprietary blend of alnico magnet types for the neck and middle pickups. Each pickup is voiced specifically for its position, creating high-output tone with vintage warmth and the crisp, clear sound that made Fender a legend. Designed for comfort and speed, the new American Professional “Deep C” neck profile sports more substantial shoulders—somewhat between a “Modern C”- and “U”-shaped profile. The increased mass and altered geometry creates a more natural feel that’s perfect for chord and single-note playing alike. Narrow-tall frets are taller and narrower than their medium jumbo cousins, making them especially effective for bending notes and playing chords up the neck with perfect intonation. The treble-bleed circuit maintains the high end when turning down the volume knob to reduce gain, letting your tone shine through, no matter where the instrument’s volume is set.
FEATURES Three Tim Shaw-designed V-Mod single-coil Stratocaster pickups New modern "Deep C”-shaped neck profile Bone nut; 22 narrow-tall frets for easier bending Pop-in tremolo arm for enhanced stability Treble bleed circuit maintains highs when reducing volume Includes Elite Molded hardshell case
