About Fender American Performer Tele

Fender American Performer Stratocaster & Telecaster

Fender finally releases the much-awaited American Performer Series. Derived from classic Leo Fender designs, the newest line-up comes as a follow up to the brand’s exclusive line of Americal Special guitars and incorporates new hardware to further enhance the delivery of exceptional tones that players have come to expect from authentic Fender guitars. Powering up the American Performer Series are new Yosemite alnico single-coil pickups that deliver rich, dynamic tones and DoubleTap humbucking pickups that split the coils into two while preserving their volume. They also feature Greasebucket tone circuity to shape high notes while maintaining gain and clarity, as well as push-pull pots to unlock new tones on some models. Benefiting the Yosemite pickups are flat-staggered pole pieces that increase output and shellac coating that provides breathing space for the coils while controlling feedback. With modern C-shaped necks, 9.5”-radius fingerboards, 22 jumbo frets on each guitar, and interesting new color schemes, the American Performer Series is designed to suit different kinds of players and provide a new level of comfort and accuracy for almost any playing style.

A masterpiece from the heart of Corona, CA, the American Performer Telecaster Electric Guitar, with its Maple Fingerboard and striking 3-Color Sunburst finish, is a fusion of Fender's iconic humbucking tone and innovative tone technologies. This instrument is meticulously crafted to inspire musicians and elevate their performance to unprecedented levels.

The American Performer Telecaster is equipped with the Yosemite single-coil pickup, specifically designed to deliver a rich, expressive tone that resonates with every strum. It also features a DoubleTap humbucking neck pickup, a unique design currently under patent application. This innovative feature seamlessly blends humbucking and single-coil voices, eliminating any volume loss when in single-coil mode, ensuring a robust and consistent output.

The guitar's Yosemite pickups are further enhanced with flat-staggered pole pieces, increasing output for a more powerful sound. The wax potting allows the coils to breathe while effectively controlling feedback, producing dynamic sounds that are perfect for any musical genre or performance setting.

The American Performer Telecaster Electric Guitar also boasts the Greasebucket tone circuitry. This advanced feature allows musicians to shape the highs without adding bass, preserving the purity and authenticity of your sound.

The guitar's "Modern C"-shaped neck, coupled with a 9.5"-radius fingerboard, is designed to accommodate almost any playing style with ease. The 22 jumbo frets facilitate effortless and accurate bending, making this guitar a versatile tool for both seasoned performers and aspiring musicians.

In summary, the American Performer Telecaster Electric Guitar, with its Maple Fingerboard and 3-Color Sunburst finish, is not just an instrument, but a testament to Fender's commitment to quality, innovation, and the timeless art of music.
