The New Fender American Professional II Stratocaster is upon us! The Professional Series received some massive upgrades over the original version including updated V Mod Pickups, a new 2 Point Tremolo with a cold-rolled steel block, and a new Deep C neck profile with rolled fingerboard edges. This is the nicest playing guitar Fender can make for the money!
The ultra-playable neck on this upgraded model is made from a piece of maple. The neck features a Deep C Profile which has a nice medium size to it. The back of the neck has what Fender calls the Super Natural Finish which simulates the feel of natural wood. It’s a satin urethane that is super durable yet thin. A slightly wider nut width than vintage is present at 1.685″ along with a 9.5″ fingerboard radius, 22 narrow-tall frets, 25.5″ scale length, and a bone nut.
The body on this electric guitar is made from Alderand it helps this guitar weigh in at8 lbs2 oz. This is the most often used tonewood in the history of Fender. Introduced in 1957, Alderis often considered the softest hardwood, which is part of why it is so toneful! Learn more about Alder, at Matt’s Blog!
The New V Mod II Single Coil Pickups have been revamped to be more articulate, and maintain their Fender-esque bell-like quality and chime. A master volume, 2 tone controls, and a 5-way switch make finding the tone you are looking for easy.
Fender keeps building guitars for players. With their eye on offering tons of features for not a whole lot of money, you can easily find the right Fender for whatever your needs may be. Stop by the shop today and see what’s new from Fender, all the way from Squier to Fender Custom Shop!
