Fender Am Pro II Strat, Dark Knight finish, made in USA 2020. Cool finish, no? The American Professional series replaced the long running American Standard, aiming to serve up gig-ready, super sturdy players for a decent dime that come with the sweet smell of freedom baked in... (eagle screeches above). This one got the updated V-Mod pickups and a steel block trem, which adds a bit of heft to the bottom end and further stabilises the tuning. The single coils are crisp and immediate, while the humbucker is wide and warm; all the tones on offer deliver a certain hi-fi chime and sparkle. The reverse-burst style finish looks awesome too, it will surely hang beautifully on your wall or work even harder on stage. Why so serious?
