Fender American Professional Classic Hotshot Telecaster Electric Guitar - Faded Sherwood Green Metallic
Overview
This Telecaster blends classic Fender tone and styling with modern performance features — ideal for studio work or stage performance.
Key Construction & Features
-
Body: Alder body with a gloss urethane finish in Faded Sherwood Green Metallic.
-
Neck: Maple neck in a Modern “C” shape, satin urethane finish.
-
Fingerboard: Rosewood fingerboard, 22 medium-jumbo frets, 9.5″ radius for comfortable playability.
-
Scale length: 25.5″ (classic Fender).
-
Electronics: Two Coastline™ ’63 Telecaster single-coil pickups (neck & bridge) plus a Coastline™ ’57 Stratocaster single-coil in the middle position, and a 5-way selector switch — giving a “Nashville” style configuration for more tonal richness.
-
Hardware: Vintage-style 3-saddle “ashtray” bridge with brass barrel saddles, plus Staggered ClassicGear™ tuning machines.
-
Tone circuitry: Includes Fender’s “Greasebucket” tone system, which helps retain clarity when rolling back the tone knob.
Why It Stands Out
-
The three-pickup (Tele + middle Strat) layout gives you a wide tonal palette — you get the classic Tele snap plus those “in-between” Strat quack tones.
-
The modern neck shape + 9.5″ radius make it comfortable and quick to play, while the vintage touches keep that classic vibe.
-
The finish (Faded Sherwood Green Metallic) offers a distinctive look that nods to vintage styling but with a modern twist.
Ideal For
-
Players looking for a versatile instrument that can handle vintage-telecasters styles (blues, country twang) but also more modern rhythm/lead work thanks to the middle pickup.
-
A higher-end U.S. made instrument built for serious use — studio, live gigging, and as a flagship model.
-
Players who appreciate both vintage aesthetics and contemporary enhancements in one package.
