PLAYER'S PERSPECTIVE

This American Performer Telecaster in a beautiful Satin Surf Green finish is the no-flash, no-frills workhorse Telecaster you've been looking for, and we're proud to offer this option for the discerning player!

Sporting vintage looks, the rosewood fretboard contrasts beautifully with the white pickguard and surf green finish, and under the hood, it's been brought into the 21st century with all the features a performing musician needs to succeed both in the studio and on stage.  The modern C neck shape is familiar and comfortable and is the closest to "one size fits all" a Telecaster neck can get.

In addition to the classic sounding bridge single-coil, this guitar features a custom humbucker in the neck position that adds a PAF-style thickness and warmth to the Tele that still manages to blend fantastically with the bridge pickup!

Series like this American Performer make you realize that Fender isn't just sitting back on the laurels of their success, but rather are truly continuing to pioneer the industry and pump out high-quality, innovative offerings at all price points.

MANUFACTURER'S DESCRIPTION

The Corona, CA.-crafted American Performer Telecaster Hum combines exceptional Fender humbucking tone and authentic feel with new tone technologies and player-oriented features designed to inspire while propelling your playing to new heights.

The American Performer Telecaster Hum includes the Yosemite single-coil pickup—designed for rich, expressive tone—and a DoubleTap humbucking neck pickup. This unique, patent-applied-for design combines humbucking and single-coil voices, while eliminating volume loss in single-coil mode. With flat-staggered pole pieces to increase output and wax pottings that let the coils breathe while controlling feedback, Yosemite pickups produce dynamic sounds ideal for any musical situation. The American Performer Telecaster Hum also features Greasebucket tone circuitry to shape the highs without adding bass, preserving your sound. The “Modern C”-shaped neck sports a 9.5”-radius fretboard that’s comfortable for almost any playing style, along with 22 jumbo frets for effortless and accurate bending.
