The Nantel Verdict
V-Mod II single-coil pickups with enhanced clarity and authentic Tele snap. Rolled fingerboard edges and sculpted neck heel for premium playability. Deep C neck profile with narrow tall frets for fast, accurate playing. Made in USA with premium components throughout.
Roll the bridge pickup tone knob to 7 for the ultimate Tele sweet spot - all the twang and bite you want with zero harshness. This is the setting Nashville session guitarists have relied on for decades.
The American Professional Telecaster is what happens when the world's most no-nonsense guitar design gets refined by seven decades of professional musician feedback. The V-Mod II pickups capture that legendary snap with modern clarity, the rolled edges make it a joy to play for hours, and the overall build quality ensures it delivers flawlessly every single night. The Telecaster for players who demand professional-grade everything.

Limited Edition American Professional II Telecaster® Thinline
Our popular Deep "C" neck sports smooth rolled fingerboard edges, a "Super-Natural" satin finish and a sculpted neck heel for a supremely comfortable feel and easy access to the upper register. V-Mod II Telecaster single-coil pickups are more articulate than ever while delivering the twang, snap and snarl that made the Tele famous. The top-load/string-through bridge with compensated "bullet" saddles is our most comfortable, flexible Tele bridge yet - retaining classic brass-saddle tone and providing excellent intonation and flexible setup options, allowing you to tailor the tension and tone of each string to your liking.Features

Highlights
V-MOD II PICKUPS
V-Mod II Telecaster pickups are voiced specifically for each position, creating a perfectly balanced tone with the vintage warmth and crisp, clear sound that made Fender a legend.NEW SCULPTED NECK HEEL
The rounded neck heel and beveled neck-plate improve access to the upper register and make leads easy and comfortable.TOP-LOAD/STRING-THROUGH “BULLET” SADDLE TELE BRIDGE
The new Telecaster bridge sports compensated “bullet” brass barrel saddles for comfort, accurate intonation and vintage-informed tone. Strings can be top-loaded for reduced tension, resulting in a mellower twang and springy attack that’s perfect for rock n roll.“DEEP C” NECK PROFILE WITH ROLLED FINGERBOARD EDGES
Delivering both comfort and speed, the American Professional II “Deep C” neck profile is slim at the nut and fills out gradually as it approaches the neck joint to create a natural feel that’s perfect for chording and single note playing alike. The hand-rolled fingerboard edges and Super-Natural satin finish provide a supremely comfortable feel.SPECIAL ELECTRONICS
A performance-friendly push-push switch on the tone control activates the series mode in position 2, using both pickups to create a fatter tone not normally found on a Tele.
