"Featuring some of the most recognizable Fender silhouettes and body styles, the American Professional Classic emphasizes vintage aesthetics and modern playability. The new line features Stratocaster, Jaguar, Telecaster, Precision Bass, and Mustang Bass models, each with overwound vintage-style pickups and modern performance-enhancing aspects, such as a modern "C"-shaped neck. These axes offer an accessible entry point for players looking for a pro-grade, stage-ready instrument, with prices ranging from $1,500 through $1,600 - a few hundred less than the American Professional II Stratocaster, for example."
""We have hyper-modern guitars in the Ultra, and we have very classic guitars in the American Vintage," Executive Vice President at Fender Products and Manufacturing Justin Norvell adds. "The American Pro is kind of the contemporary icon, and this line leans a little more classic than those, but remains a great entry point to American-made Fender." Fender has also touted the line's durability for "night after night" usage, strategically tapping hardcore act Turnstile as the face of the American Professional Classic series."
Fender introduced the American Professional Classic line of Stratocaster, Jaguar, Telecaster, Precision Bass, and Mustang Bass models that combine vintage aesthetics with modern playability. Models include overwound vintage-style pickups based on American Vintage II reissues, slightly modified for more warmth and output. Neck profiles feature a modern "C"-shaped design and other performance-enhancing aspects aimed at stage-ready durability. Prices range from $1,500 to $1,600, positioning the line as the least expensive American-made Fender option. Fender positioned Turnstile as a promotional partner to emphasize the instruments' road-worthiness and consistent night-after-night performance.
