Fender Am Pro Clsc Strat RMN DPB review

The Fender Am Pro Clsc Strat RMN DPB is a U.S.-made electric guitar with a Daphne Blue alder body, a roasted maple neck and fingerboard, and three single-coil pickups. Its listed price is $1,739. The specifications identify it as a Strat-style instrument with a 648 mm scale, a six-saddle synchronized tremolo, and a 22-fret layout. They provide a clear picture of the hardware and construction, though they do not establish how the guitar sounds or feels in use.

No customer reviews are available for this product. The assessment here is therefore based only on the supplied specifications, rather than reported owner experiences or hands-on testing.

Body, neck, and fingerboard

The body is alder, with no separate top listed. The neck and fingerboard are both roasted maple, giving the instrument a consistent wood choice across the playing surface and neck. Fender specifies a bolt-on neck joint and a Modern C profile. The profile name describes the stated shape, but the listing does not provide additional measurements for the neck's depth or shoulder.

The fingerboard has a 241 mm (9.5-inch) radius, black dot inlays, and 22 medium-jumbo frets. This combination is specific enough to identify the board's curvature and fret format, but it does not support claims about fret finishing, setup, or playability. The scale length is 648 mm (25.5 inches), and the synthetic bone nut measures 42.8 mm (1.685 inches) wide.

For buyers comparing neck dimensions, those figures are useful reference points. They can be checked against the measurements of a guitar already in hand. The product information does not state the neck's finish, fretboard edge treatment, or factory action, so those details should be confirmed with the seller if they affect a purchase decision.

Pickups and controls

The pickup set consists of two Custom Shop Fat '60s Strat single-coil pickups, placed at the neck and bridge, plus a Custom Shop Fat '60s RWRP Strat single-coil in the middle position. RWRP means reverse-wound, reverse-polarity. The specification identifies the pickup models and positions but does not include output readings, wiring diagrams, or measured tonal results.

Controls include one master volume knob and two tone knobs. A five-way switch selects the pickup combinations. This layout follows a familiar three-pickup control arrangement, with the switch providing access to individual pickups and combinations. The supplied information does not specify which tone control is connected to each pickup, so that detail should not be assumed.

Tremolo, hardware, and finish

A six-saddle vintage-style synchronized tremolo is fitted at the bridge. The guitar also has Fender ClassicGear staggered tuning machines and nickel-and-chrome hardware. The strings listed are Fender USA 250L nickel-plated steel strings in.009 to.042 gauges. These are the supplied string details; the specifications do not describe the factory setup, spring arrangement, or whether the tremolo is adjusted for floating or decked use.

The finish is Daphne Blue, paired with a three-ply mint green pickguard. That color combination is directly stated in the product details. No finish type, gloss level, or color-matching variation is specified.

Included item and specification check

The package includes a Deluxe gig bag. Although one summary field says "incl. Bag: Yes," another says "Including Case: No." These entries are consistent with a gig bag being included and a hard case not being included. The sales unit is one piece, and the item number is 653323.

  • Body: Alder, Daphne Blue, with no top listed
  • Neck and fingerboard: Roasted maple, bolt-on neck, Modern C profile
  • Fingerboard details: 241 mm radius, black dot inlays, 22 medium-jumbo frets
  • Scale and nut: 648 mm scale, 42.8 mm synthetic bone nut
  • Electronics: Two Custom Shop Fat '60s Strat pickups and one Custom Shop Fat '60s RWRP Strat pickup

  • Included: Deluxe gig bag; no hard case listed

Technical assessment

The listed specifications make this a clearly defined Strat-style configuration: alder body, roasted maple neck and fingerboard, three single-coil pickups, five-way switching, and a vintage-style synchronized tremolo. The 25.5-inch scale, 9.5-inch fingerboard radius, and 1.685-inch nut width give shoppers concrete dimensions for comparison.

At $1,739, buyers should verify the exact condition, setup, and included accessories with the seller, since those points are not established by the specification sheet. The data supports a technical comparison, but not a judgment about sound, comfort, tuning stability, or workmanship. With no customer feedback available, those questions remain open rather than evidence for or against the guitar.

Scores by area

Where it shines, where it stumbles

What convinced me

  • Roasted maple neck and fingerboard with a Modern C profile.
  • Three Custom Shop Fat '60s single-coil pickups with a five-way switch.
  • Includes a Deluxe gig bag and is made in the USA.

What bugged me

  • The vintage-style synchronized tremolo offers less tuning stability than a fixed bridge may provide.
  • No hard case is included.

Is it the right one for you?

Good pick if

A good fit for players seeking a traditional Stratocaster layout, single-coil tones, and a roasted maple neck. Also suited to buyers who want a USA-made guitar with a gig bag included.

Look elsewhere if

Not ideal for players who require a hard case in the package. Consider another model if you prefer a fixed bridge or a pickup configuration other than three single coils.
