Fender American Performer Telecaster Hum (Satin Surf Green) is a right-handed six-string electric guitar. It combines a recognisable body shape, 25.5" (648 mm) scale and SH pickup layout. The Satin Surf Green finish highlights the body contours and identifies this version in the SoundsGood catalogue.
Body, neck and playing feel
The body uses Alder, the neck is Maple and the fingerboard is Rosewood. A Modern "C" profile shapes the feel in your hand. The 25.5" (648 mm) scale provides familiar fret spacing for chords, riffs and lead passages.
The fingerboard has a 9.5" (241 mm) radius, 22 Jumbo frets and a 1.685" (42.8 mm) nut width. These dimensions help you compare finger spacing, bending feel and the transition between lower and upper positions.
Pickups and sound controls
The neck pickup is a American Performer Double Tap Humbucking and the bridge pickup is a Yosemite Single-Coil Telecaster. Pickup positions let you compare a rounder neck voice with a more defined bridge attack.
Controls: Master Volume, Greasebucket Tone Circuit (Rolls Off Highs without Adding Bass). The selector chooses individual pickups and their combinations. Adjusting volume and picking strength helps you balance accompaniment and lead passages.
A neck Double Tap humbucker complements the bridge Yosemite single coil. Push-pull switching splits the neck humbucker, while Greasebucket tone circuitry reduces highs without adding bass.
Bridge and hardware
The bridge is a 3-Saddle Vintage-Style Strings-Through-Body Tele with Brass Barrel Saddles. Tuning machines: Fender ClassicGear. The saddles allow action and intonation adjustments to suit the string gauge and playing approach.
Included: Deluxe Gig Bag.
