American Professional II Telecaster, Maple Fingerboard, Butterscotch Blonde

American Professional II Telecaster: A New Standard for Professional Instruments

The American Professional II Telecaster draws from more than seventy years of innovation, inspiration, and evolution to meet the demands of today’s working player. This guitar is designed to offer the best of classic Telecaster sound with modern enhancements, ensuring it meets the needs of contemporary musicians.

Enhanced Comfort and Playability

The popular Deep "C” neck now features smooth rolled fingerboard edges, a “Super-Natural” satin finish, and a newly sculpted neck heel. These improvements provide a supremely comfortable feel and easy access to the upper register, making it ideal for both rhythm and lead playing. The 25.5-inch scale length and maple fingerboard with 22 narrow tall frets ensure precise intonation and a fast, smooth playing experience.

Articulate and Versatile Pickups

New V-Mod II Telecaster single-coil pickups deliver more articulation than ever, capturing the classic Tele twang, snap, and snarl with enhanced clarity. The 3-position blade switch allows you to select between the bridge pickup, a combination of bridge and neck pickups, and the neck pickup, offering a versatile range of tones for any musical style. The master volume and master tone controls provide additional sound-shaping options.

Superior Bridge Design

The new top-load/string-through bridge with compensated “bullet” saddles is the most comfortable and flexible Tele bridge yet. It retains the classic brass-saddle tone while providing excellent intonation and flexible setup options. This allows you to tailor the tension and tone of each string to your liking, ensuring optimal performance in any playing situation.
