Fender American Professional Classic Telecaster SSS RW Faded Sherwood Green Metallic

A "Golden Age" Telecaster Reinterpreted for Today's Musicians

The American Professional Classic Hotshot Telecaster sits at the crossroads of vintage Fender charm and modern playability expectations. Its iconic aesthetics, traditional hardware choices, and pickups inspired by the brand's legendary years make it a professional-level guitar designed to deliver that "old school" character with a more contemporary response, ready to handle recording sessions and live concerts.

For Which Guitarists and Styles?

This Telecaster is aimed at intermediate and advanced guitarists seeking an expressive, precise, and versatile electric guitar. It excels in country, blues, rock, indie, pop, and funk, with a true sense of attack and nuance. The 5-position selector and the presence of a middle pickup open up broader tonal ranges than a traditional Telecaster, while preserving Fender's DNA.

Sound

The alder body provides a very Fender-balanced tone: firm lows, clear mids, and musical highs. The Coastline '63 Single-Coil Telecaster pickups (bridge and neck) deliver the expected twang, brightness, and bite, with dynamic response under the pick and excellent chord definition. The middle Coastline '57 Single-Coil Stratocaster RWRP pickup adds a more "bell-like" and snappy color, very useful for crisp rhythms and clean tone lines. With the master volume and master tone controls, you can easily switch from an articulate clean to a punchy crunch while maintaining excellent clarity.

Recommended Compatible Accessories

The guitar comes equipped with Fender USA 250L Nickel Plated Steel (.009-.042) strings: you can stick with this gauge to preserve the original feel. For maintenance, the included wrenches (.050" / 1.27 mm for saddles and 1/8" / 3.18 mm for the truss rod) cover essential adjustments. The included Deluxe gig bag is ideal for regular travel.
