About Fender LE American Performer Tel

Over the years, Fender has consistently delivered exceptional instruments, and the Limited Edition American Performer Telecaster Electric Guitar in 2-Color Sunburst is no exception. Crafted with precision in Corona, California, this Telecaster seamlessly combines classic design with modern innovation, making it a must-have for any guitarist seeking superior performance and style.

At the heart of this guitar are the Yosemite single-coil pickups, engineered to deliver rich, expressive tones that capture the essence of your music. These pickups feature flat-staggered pole pieces that enhance output, while the unique shellac coating on the neck pickup and wax potting on the bridge pickup allow the coils to breathe. This meticulous design helps control feedback and produce dynamic sounds suitable for any musical genre.

The American Performer Telecaster is distinguished by its Greasebucket tone circuitry, a sophisticated feature that shapes the highs without adding bass, ensuring your sound remains pure and unaltered. The guitar's "Modern C"-shaped neck is crafted to accommodate a wide range of playing styles, while the 9.5"-radius fingerboard and 22 jumbo frets facilitate effortless and precise bending.

The newly designed Yosemite pickups are sonically versatile, crafted with special alnico blends and specifically voiced for each instrument and position, offering a wide palette of musical possibilities. Complementing these pickups are the ClassicGear tuning machines, which combine vintage aesthetics with a modern 18:1 gear ratio, providing smooth action and precise tuning stability.

For those seeking the authentic Telecaster twang and snap, this guitar features three brass saddles, embodying the classic Fender style and sound. The satin-finished neck, with its "Modern C"-shaped profile, offers a smooth, fast playing feel, enhancing your overall playing experience.

The innovative Greasebucket Tone System allows you to cut treble without losing gain or muddying your sound, preserving the clarity and integrity of your tone. Experience the perfect fusion of tradition and innovation with the Limited Edition American Performer Telecaster Electric Guitar in 2-Color Sunburst, a true testament to Fender's legacy of excellence.
