It's a fresh step in a new direction with the Fender American Professional Classic HotShot Telecaster! Reinventing itself with new, imaginative takes on vintage Fender charm and modern Fender sensibilities, this entry to the American Professional Classic series inspires in so many ways and at every turn for an effortlessly musical American Fender model.

With Fender's American-made American Professional Classic lineup, we get a first-hand look at a varied lineup of classic Fender specifications that get new, inventive interpretations. Whatever you get out of Fender guitars, you're certain to find something in this series that's both exciting and familiar. The American Professional Classic HotShot Telecaster kicks off with its iconic, single-cutaway alder body. Wrapped in a high-gloss finish and a faded Butterscotch Blonde color, this American Professional Classic embodies a classic Fender aesthetic.

Here, the American Professional Classic HotShot Tele takes on a satin-finished maple neck in a Modern "C" profile that feels familiar to other modern Fender series necks. This neck then brings in a rosewood fingerboard with twenty-two Medium Jumbo frets that pair precision with comfort. The fingerboard's 9.5" radius offers a flatter, more modern feel on the fingers while playing.

For its voice, the American Professional Classic HotShot Telecaster loads in a revitalized version of the coveted "Nashville" Tele sort of setup. New Coastline '63 Single-Coil Telecaster pickups align in neck and bridge positions for vintage-inspired twang and articulation. In between these two Teles lands a Coastline '57 Single-Coil Stratocaster pickup. Wired reverse-wound, reverse polarity, this Stratocaster single-coil offers an added bit of variety to the usual Tele tone palette. Onboard, Fender's Greasebucket tone circuit retains signal clarity even when volume and tone are adjusted.

A sturdy set of hardware specifications bolsters this American Professional Classic's voice as it enhances playability. A three-saddle vintage-style strings-through-body Tele bridge lands with slotted brass barrel saddles for a solid connection of string-to-body. Fender ClassicGear staggered tuning machines and a synthetic bone nut appear at the headstock for streamlined stringing. This American Professional Classic HotShot Telecaster comes with an included Fender deluxe gig bag.

A chronicle of Fender's constant reinvention, the American Professional Classic HotShot Telecaster dishes out a fiery single-coil experience every time.
