The Fender American Professional Classic Hotshot Telecaster in Butterscotch Blonde embodies the perfect blend of vintage Telecaster charm and modern performance. Built for the stage and the studio, this unique triple-pickup Tele delivers the soul of Fender’s golden era with a versatile voice suited for today’s players.

Equipped with Coastline™ ’63 Telecaster® single-coil pickups in the bridge and neck positions, and a Coastline™ ’57 Stratocaster® single-coil in the middle, this Hotshot Telecaster offers expanded tonal range and unmistakable Fender character. The Modern “C” maple neck with a rosewood fingerboard provides smooth, familiar playability, while the 3-saddle vintage-style Tele bridge with slotted brass barrel saddles ensures classic twang and sustain.

Finished in Butterscotch Blonde with a 1-ply black pickguard, this instrument combines timeless design with professional-grade tone and reliability. The American Professional Classic Hotshot Telecaster is all the warmth, punch, and sparkle of a classic Fender — evolved for the modern guitarist.
