This 2017 Fender American Professional Telecaster in Candy Apple Red is a high-performance evolution of the classic solidbody design, blending vintage-inspired character with modern refinements. This model features a balanced alder body paired with a comfortable "Deep C" maple neck, which offers more substantial shoulders for a natural feel that accommodates both chordal and lead playing. It is equipped with two Shaw-designed V-Mod single-coil pickups that use a proprietary blend of alnico magnets to deliver high-output, nuanced tones while maintaining the iconic Telecaster "twang".
Modern additions include narrow-tall frets for precise string bending, a treble bleed circuit to preserve high-end clarity at lower volumes, and a redesigned "ashtray" bridge with compensated brass barrel saddles for improved intonation. The striking Candy Apple Red gloss finish is complemented by a 3-ply mint green pickguard and original Elite molded hardshell case, making it a versatile tool for professional musicians.
