Fender American Professional II Stratocaster Maple Fingerboard; Dark Night
Fender American Professional II Stratocaster Maple Fingerboard; Dark Night
The evolution of the world’s most iconic electric guitar, refined for the modern professional performer.
The American Professional II Stratocaster is the culmination of over sixty years of design iteration, engineered to meet the technical demands of today’s working musicians. This series focuses on balancing vintage inspiration with functional evolution, ensuring the instrument remains a versatile tool in both studio and stage environments.
Constructed with a traditional alder or roasted pine body, the guitar features the refined Deep "C" neck profile with a "Super-Natural" satin finish. The hardware configuration includes a synchronised 2-point tremolo system anchored by a cold-rolled steel block, providing a stable platform for expressive pitch control while optimising resonance.
Enhanced Playability and Ergonomics
-
Contoured Neck Heel: A newly sculpted neck joint provides unrestricted access to the upper register of the 22-fret fingerboard.
-
Rolled Fingerboard Edges: Hand-finished edges offer a broken-in feel for immediate comfort during extended playing sessions.
-
Narrow-Tall Frets: Optimized fret wire height facilitates precise intonation and effortless string bending.
-
Deep "C" Profile: A versatile neck shape that provides enough mass for stability while remaining slim enough for fast technical passages.
Refined Sonic Architecture
-
V-Mod II Pickups: Revoiced single-coil pickups utilising proprietary alnico magnet blends for increased articulation and classic chime.
-
Cold-Rolled Steel Block: An upgraded tremolo block material that enhances sustain, clarity, and high-end harmonic content.
-
Treble Bleed Circuit: Integrated electronics maintain high-frequency definition even when the master volume is attenuated.
-
Bone Nut: High-quality nut material ensures superior vibration transfer and tuning consistency.
Designed and manufactured in Corona, California, the American Professional II Stratocaster represents a new standard for professional-grade instruments. Built for reliability and sonic versatility, it ships in a Deluxe Moulded hardshell case, providing maximum protection for the rigours of frequent transport and professional use.
