The Fender American Professional Classic Telecaster is the perfect blend of vintage charm and modern muscle. This guitar gives you all the soulful twang and bite that made the Telecaster a legend, but with the smooth playability and rock-solid reliability today's players demand. It’s got the heart of a '60s workhorse with the guts of a modern road warrior.
Your Ticket to Timeless Tele Tone
There's a reason the Telecaster has been the go-to for countless guitar heroes. It's simple, direct, and it just works. This American Professional Classic Telecaster takes that legendary formula and refines it, giving you an instrument that feels instantly familiar yet surprisingly versatile. This guitar is a direct line to the iconic tone.
Coastline ‘63 Tele Pickups: These vintage-inspired pickups are the soul of the guitar. They deliver that classic Telecaster sparkle and snap, with enough punch and depth to cut through any mix. From clean country licks to overdriven rock riffs, these pickups sing with character.
Greasebucket Tone System: This clever circuit lets you roll off the high-end without adding bass or losing volume. What does that mean for you? You can clean up your tone on the fly, getting a smooth, mellow sound without turning your amp to mud. It’s a secret weapon for tonal versatility.
Playability That Begs to Be Played
This Telecaster is built to be an extension of your hands. Fender focused on comfort and speed, creating a neck and fretboard that lets you play for hours without a fight.
Modern “C” Neck Profile: Forget clunky, cumbersome necks. The Modern "C" shape is sleek and comfortable, providing the perfect middle ground that feels just right for chording or soloing. It melts into your hand, letting your fingers do the talking.
9.5" Radius Maple Fingerboard: The slightly flatter 9.5" radius fingerboard is a modern player's dream. It makes string bending a breeze and prevents "fretting out" during those soaring solos. Combined with Medium Jumbo frets, you get a buttery-smooth feel all the way up the neck.
Drop-Dead Gorgeous Looks and Rock-Solid Hardware
A great guitar needs to look the part and stay in tune, and this Telecaster delivers on both fronts with vintage style and modern reliability.
Gloss Urethane Finish: The alder body is coated in a durable gloss urethane finish that not only looks stunning but is tough enough to handle life on the road. It shows off the guitar's classic lines while providing protection for years to come.
Vintage-Style Hardware: From the 3-saddle bridge to the knurled flat-top knobs, this guitar oozes old-school cool. It’s a visual callback to the golden era of Fender craftsmanship.
Staggered ClassicGear Tuners: These tuners give you the look of vintage tuning machines with the precision of modern engineering. The staggered posts improve the break angle over the nut, enhancing tuning stability and sustain. You can play with confidence, knowing your tuning is locked in.
A Modern Classic Ready for Anything
The American Professional Classic Telecaster is a reliable choice for studio sessions, live performances, and everything in between. It blends the essence of vintage Fender with modern refinements for today’s musicians.

Great
I love this guitar. I liked the pure tele. Single coils old school with modern updates. This is the only tele you need even though I have 5 teles. Love the new colors. This one is my new favorite. Best tele for the price.
