Fender American Professional II GT11 Stratocaster Electric Guitar

Description: Sweetwater-spec'd Custom Shop Classic Enters Standard Production Previously limited to Fender’s Custom Shop offerings, the Sweetwater-designed GT11 (Grand Touring) platform makes its way into Fender’s standard roster with the American Professional II GT11. This superb series of 6-strings begins with a standard setup of a lightweight alder body, ’60s oval “C” maple neck, and a rosewood fingerboard, making for a fine foundation for any vintage-style Strat. That said, the rest of this guitar's Sweetwater-spec features are anything but traditional. From the upgraded 6-point tremolo with a cold-rolled steel block to the string-tree-less headstock and the titular 11-inch fingerboard radius, the Fender American Professional II GT11 Stratocaster retains the eminently modern feel and performance of Sweetwater’s Fender Custom Shop GT11 models.

Finally, we opted to outfit the American Professional II GT11 Stratocaster with a trio of Fender Custom Shop Fat ’60s pickups to capture the warm lows, rich midrange, and mellow highs made famous by iconic blues and rock guitarists from the early 1960s. Available only at Sweetwater, the Fender American Professional II GT11 Stratocaster delivers slick Sweetwater specs and Custom Shop class in spades.A trio of Custom Shop Strat single-coils Throughout the vintage era, Fender’s pickups drastically varied in tone from year to year — manufacturing consistency wasn’t quite as exacting as it is today! This resulted in endless variations between pickups of the same model, especially when comparing pickups divided by more than a few years. The Fender American Professional II GT11’s three Custom Shop Fat ’60s pickups exemplify this fact; they capture the sound of aged pickups from the early ‘60s, infusing every note you play with warm lows, rich midrange, and mellow highs. The slightly overwound, yet eminently vintage-inspired, tone of these pickups is guaranteed to inspire your best playing ever.You've never felt a Strat neck like this one Some necks feel good, while others feel great. The GT11 Stratocaster goes beyond great — you'll feel an immediate personal connection to this guitar. This solidbody electric guitar's 11-inch-radius rosewood fingerboard makes everything effortless. Play a chord by the nut or play a few licks at the 14th fret; it all feels the same — smooth and incredible. And the maple neck features a '60s-style oval "C" shape that fills your hand perfectly, no matter where you're playing. When we first got our hands on the GT11 here at Sweetwater, we were amazed at what a difference the 11-inch radius made — especially for players who were used to a flatter radius than a traditional Strat.Set to Sweetwater Exclusive specs Boasting a handpicked set of specs courtesy of Sweetwater’s guitar experts, the GT11 series delivers a tone, feel, and performance you simply can’t find on any other Strat. Besides the titular 11-inch radius, this Strat sports an upgraded 6-point tremolo with a cold-rolled steel block. What does that mean for you? A significant sustain boost, in addition to a sparkling top-end chime and clarity across the American Professional II GT11’s entire range. This instrument is also loaded with a push-push tone knob that adds the neck pickup to the signal no matter what switch position you’re using. Run it through your grittiest dirt pedals or your cleanest amp and this Strat will be right at home. While it may appear like a minor detail, the Fender American Professional II GT11 Stratocaster’s string tree-less headstock reduces the break angle of the top two strings to deliver a slightly slacker, easier-to-bend feel.Fender American Professional II GT11 Stratocaster Electric Guitar Features: Inspired by Sweetwater’s line of GT11 (Grand Touring) Fender Custom Shop Stratocasters Lightweight alder body offers a brilliant, balanced tone Maple neck in a comfortable ’60s oval “C” profile Rosewood fingerboard planed into a Sweetwater-spec 11-inch radius and finished with 22 narrow-tall frets 6-point tremolo with a cold-rolled steel block enhances sustain and clarity A trio of Fender Custom Shop Fat ’60s pickups captures the warm lows, rich midrange, and mellow highs of the early 1960s Push-push tone control adds the neck pickup to any position String tree-less headstock grants a slacker feel on the high E and B strings SpecificationDetail Number of Strings 6 Left-/Right-handed Right-handed Body Type Solidbody Body Shape Stratocaster Body Material Alder Color Fiesta Red Body Finish Gloss Urethane Neck Material Roasted Maple Neck Shape '60s Oval C Neck Joint Bolt-on Radius 11" Fingerboard Material Rosewood Fingerboard Inlay Dots Number of Frets 22, Narrow Tall Scale Length 25.5" Nut Width 1.65" Nut Material Bone Bridge/Tailpiece Fender 6-Point with Bent Steel Saddles Screw-In Tremolo Arm Tuners Fender Short-post Cast/Sealed Tuners Neck Pickup Fender Custom Shop Fat 60s Single-coil Middle Pickup Fender Custom Shop Fat 60s RWRP Single-coil Bridge Pickup Fender Custom Shop Fat 60s Single-coil Controls 1 x master volume, 1 x tone (neck/middle), 1 x tone (push/push neck pickup) Switching 5-way blade pickup switch Strings Fender, .009-.042 Case/Gig Bag Hardshell Case RETURN INFORMATION We want you to be completely happy with your purchase from Sweetwater.
