Description
FENDER American Pro Classic Stratocaster® – Faded Lake Placid Blue
The American Professional Classic Stratocaster takes the feel and sound players associate with great vintage Strats and refines it for modern use. It delivers the familiar chime, balance, and response that define the Stratocaster, paired with updated playability and dependable hardware you can trust on stage or in the studio.
Finished in Faded Lake Placid Blue, this Strat keeps things classic without feeling dated. The alder body provides the snap and resonance Strat players expect, while Coastline ’57 Stratocaster pickups bring articulate lows, clear mids, and that unmistakable top-end sparkle. Clean tones stay open and dynamic, and pushed sounds retain clarity without getting harsh.
The Modern “C” neck with a 9.5" radius and Medium Jumbo frets feels immediately familiar, whether you are coming from a vintage Fender or a more modern instrument. It is comfortable for chords, bends cleanly, and stays consistent across the fingerboard. Staggered ClassicGear tuners keep tuning stable while preserving a traditional look, and the Greasebucket Tone System lets you roll off highs without losing definition.
This is a Strat built for players who want classic tone, modern reliability, and a guitar that works across genres and settings without needing modification.
