Evolution at its finest
Often copied, but never surpassed, the Stratocaster is arguably the world’s most-loved and used 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, improved.
V Mod Pickups
The Fender V-Mod Stratocaster pickups are designed 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 true legend.
Neck “Deep C” Neck Profile
Built for comfort and speed, the new American Professional “Deep C” neck profile sports more substantial shoulders. The increased mass and altered geometry creates a more natural feel that is perfect for chord and single-note playing alike.
Narrow-Tall Frets
The 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.
Pop-In Tremolo Arm
The all new pop-in tremolo arm securely stays in position, no matter how verocious your playing style. The arm tension can also be adjusted for a perfectly dialed-in feel that matches any player’s preference.
Treble-Bleed Circuit
The treble-bleed circuit maintains the high end when turning down the volume knob to reduce gain, while your tone shines through, no matter where the instrument’s volume is set.
Bone Nut
An original-era Fender design element, a bone nut adds to the superior tone and performance. Many players consider bone nuts to be more “organic” sounding.
