The Strat, Evolved.

Meet the new standard. The Fender American Professional II Stratocaster takes a legendary design and supercharges it for the modern player. It’s built on over sixty years of innovation and evolution, but this isn't your grandpa's Strat unless your grandpa is a tone-chasing, genre-hopping monster. This is the culmination of everything players love about the Stratocaster, refined to perfection. From the instant you pick it up, it feels familiar yet better, classic yet forward-thinking. It’s the Stratocaster you know and love, dialed in for today.

Sonic Versatility on Tap

The heart of this Strat is its trio of V-Mod II single-coil pickups. These aren't just another vintage reissue. They’re meticulously voiced for their specific positions, delivering that iconic Strat sparkle and chime, but with a clarity and articulation that cuts through any mix. They have that bell-like top end and warm, punchy midrange that made the Strat famous. But here's the secret weapon: a push-push tone control instantly adds the neck pickup to positions one and two, unlocking those coveted Tele-style and boosted parallel tones you can't get on a standard Strat. It’s a game-changer for session players and live performers who need maximum flexibility with zero fuss.

Effortless Playability

Fender didn't just focus on the sound; the feel is where this guitar truly sings. The Deep "C" neck profile is the perfect middle ground, substantial enough for comfortable chording but slim enough for lightning-fast leads. It's finished with a “Super-Natural” satin urethane that feels broken-in from day one, with zero stickiness to slow you down. Add to that the rolled fingerboard edges and narrow-tall frets, and you've got a neck that just begs to be played for hours on end. Bends are buttery, vibrato is expressive, and the whole thing just feels *right*. The contoured neck heel further enhances comfort, making those upper-fret excursions completely effortless.

Rock-Solid Performance

Every piece of hardware is designed for stability and performance. The upgraded 2-point synchronized tremolo features a cold-rolled steel block, which enhances sustain, clarity, and top-end sparkle. The pop-in tremolo arm stays put, and the bent steel saddles provide a classic feel and tone. Combined with the Fender Standard cast/sealed staggered tuners and a genuine bone nut, this Strat holds its tuning exceptionally well, even with heavy whammy bar use. It's a professional-grade instrument built for the rigors of the road and the precision of the studio.

- In business since 1976! Moore Music has been a premier brick-and-mortar guitar shop in Evansville, Indiana since shortly after opening in 1976. Founder, Pat Moore, instilled in his business the concept of old-school service that we build upon today.

That’s a prime reason why we’re the fastest-growing online guitar shop.

- Our sales staff are all musicians! What’s more important than communication? We speak your language. Whether you’re a beginner or a professional player, we’ve been in your shoes. A lot of aspects of the guitar are intangible, and a non-player just can’t understand. It’s a guitar thing. But we can talk about tone and feel in the same language you use. We know what it means to love an instrument, and we want to help you find your new love.
