The Corona (CA) crafted American Performer Telecaster combines exceptional Fender tone and authentic feel with modern materials and player-oriented features designed to inspire while propelling your playing to new heights.
Sonically versatile and musically useful, American Performer Yosemite pickups are crafted around special Alnico blends and specifically voiced for each instrument and position. The Greasebucket Tone System uniquely lets you cut treble without losing gain or “muddying” your sound, preserving your carefully shaped tone.
Combining vintage style with a modern 18:1 gear ratio, ClassicGear tuning machines have smooth action and make it easier to fine-tune your instrument. Jumbo frets make it easier to achieve wide, expressive bends that add your personal touch to your music. For authentic Telecaster twang and snap, this guitar sports 3 brass saddles for classic Fender style and sound. Featuring a “Modern C”-shaped profile that works well with almost any playing style, the neck also hosts a satin finish on the back, giving it a smooth, fast playing feel.
