The American Professional II Stratocaster represents Fender's latest refinement of the electric guitar that defined modern music, engineered specifically for working players who demand reliable performance night after night. At its core sit three V-Mod III single-coil pickups, redesigned for greater articulation whilst retaining the bell-like chime and warmth that Strats are known for. The Deep C neck profile features rolled fingerboard edges and a Super-Natural satin finish that feels broken-in from day one, whilst a newly sculpted heel grants effortless access to the upper register. ClassicGear Precision Potentiometers deliver smooth, consistent control with custom torque and a musical taper that responds predictably across the entire sweep. The upgraded 2-point tremolo now features a cold-rolled steel block that increases sustain, clarity and high-end sparkle compared to previous models. ClassicGear Radial bent-steel saddles simplify intonation and action adjustments with recessed screws that won't interfere during aggressive playing. The maple fingerboard on this 3-Colour Sunburst variant offers bright attack and visual contrast against the classic finish, whilst maintaining the smooth playing surface Fender necks are recognised for worldwide.
