The Fender American Professional II Stratocaster® in 3-Color Sunburst represents the evolution of one of the most legendary electric guitars ever made. Built in Corona, California, this Strat blends more than 60 years of Fender heritage with thoughtful modern upgrades that today’s players truly appreciate. The classic 3-Color Sunburst finish paired with a 3-ply tort pickguard delivers unmistakable vintage Strat style, while the alder body provides the balanced resonance and bell-like chime that have defined Stratocaster tone for generations.
At the core of this guitar is a trio of V-Mod II single-coil pickups, designed to retain the warmth and sparkle of vintage Strat pickups while adding improved articulation and clarity. From glassy cleans and funky rhythm tones to biting blues leads and dynamic overdrive, this Strat delivers the full range of iconic Strat sounds with exceptional responsiveness.
The Deep “C” maple neck with rolled fingerboard edges and Fender’s “Super-Natural” satin finish feels incredibly comfortable and broken-in from the first chord. A sculpted neck heel makes access to the upper frets effortless, while 22 narrow-tall frets and a 9.5" radius rosewood fingerboard strike the perfect balance between vintage feel and modern playability.
Fender’s upgraded 2-point synchronized tremolo with a cold-rolled steel block enhances sustain, clarity, and high-end sparkle while providing smooth, reliable vibrato. Additional performance upgrades like a bone nut, treble-bleed circuit, and staggered tuners ensure stable tuning and consistent tone at any volume.
Familiar, versatile, and built to perform, the American Professional II Stratocaster sets the modern standard for professional Strat tone and feel.
