Fender American Professional Classic Stratocaster®

Fender American Professional Classic Stratocaster®

The Stratocaster is the most iconic electric guitar ever created, and the American Professional Classic brings its golden-era soul into the modern world with everything a working player needs and nothing they don’t. Vintage-inspired Coastline™ ’57 pickups deliver the warm, sparkling tone that defined the sound of the late 1950s, while a Modern “C” neck, Greasebucket™ tone circuit, and staggered ClassicGear™ tuners ensure it plays and performs at a professional level night after night. With six stunning custom-faded finishes to choose from, this is the Stratocaster for players who want the real thing — all the soul of a golden-era Fender, evolved for today’s player.
