FENDER AMERICAN PROFESSIONAL II TELECASTER DELUXE IN MIAMI BLUE WITH MAPLE FRETBOARD

The Fender American Professional II Telecaster Deluxe draws from more than sixty years of innovation, inspiration and evolution to meet the demands of today’s working player.

Fender’s popular Deep “C” neck now sports smooth rolled fingerboard edges, a “Super-Natural” satin finish and a newly sculpted neck heel for a supremely comfortable feel and easy access to the upper register. New V-Mod II Double Tap™ pickups are more articulate than ever while delivering full, punchy humbucking tones and robust single-coil split sounds thanks to the push-push controls built into both tone pots. The “cut” 3-saddle top-load/string-through Tele bridge delivers classic Tele tone and feel with a stylishly sleek silhouette and flexible setup options, allowing you to tailor the tension and tone of each string to your liking. The American Pro II Telecaster delivers instant familiarity and sonic versatility you’ll feel and hear right away, with broad ranging improvements resulting in a highly compelling professional instrument.

AMERICAN PROFESSIONAL II TELECASTER DELUXE FEATURES:

V-MOD II DOUBLETAP HUMBUCKING PICKUPS: V-Mod II DoubleTap pickups are voiced specifically for each position, delivering full, punchy humbucking tones that can be split with the performance friendly push-push tone controls for robust single-coil sounds.

NEW SCULPTED NECK HEEL: The rounded neck heel and bevelled neck-plate improve access to the upper register and make leads easy and comfortable.

TOP-LOAD/STRING-THROUGH “CUT” TELE BRIDGE: The new Telecaster bridge sports compensated “bullet” brass barrel saddles for comfort, accurate intonation and vintage-informed tone. Strings can be top-loaded for reduced tension, resulting in a mellower twang and springy attack that’s perfect for rock n roll.

DEEP “C” NECK PROFILE WITH ROLLED FINGERBOARD EDGES: The new Telecaster Deluxe bridge sports a svelte “cut” design with compensated brass barrel saddles for comfort, accurate intonation and vintage-informed tone. Strings can be top-loaded for reduced tension, resulting in a mellower twang and springy attack that’s perfect for rock n roll.

SPECIAL ELECTRONICS: Two performance friendly push-push tone controls activate the unique Double Tap humbucking pickups, unlocking single-coil tones without any volume loss, making it easy to adjust your sound mid-performance.

ALDER BODY: Alder is a classic Fender tonewood with a balanced sound perfect for almost any genre.
