Description
Our Take:
The American Ultra Series from Fender is the newest line from the world-renowned guitar company, offering a series of highly advanced instruments that redefine what it means to be a musician. With changes to the body like a new tapered neck heel, reimagined contours, and a Modern compound radius "D"-shape neck profile, Fender has improved upon their already famous playing feel. Three Ultra Noiseless™ Vintage Strat® pickups with advanced wiring encourage you to push the tonal envelope, all without the hum that usually accompanies a single-coil pickup. And in a new array of beautiful finishes, the American Ultra series is a must for any guitar player looking to stay on top of the game. Shown here in Ultraburst.
Fender's Take:
American Ultra is our most advanced series of guitars and basses for discerning players who demand the ultimate in precision, performance and tone. The American Ultra Stratocaster features a unique “Modern D” neck profile with Ultra rolled fingerboard edges for hours of playing comfort, and the tapered neck heel allows easy access to the highest register. A speedy 10”-14” compound-radius fingerboard with 22 medium-jumbo frets means effortless and accurate soloing, while the Ultra Noiseless™ Vintage pickups and advanced wiring options provide endless tonal possibilities – without hum. The sculpted rear body contours are as beautiful as they are functional and the S-1 switch adds the neck pickup in to any switch position. This versatile, state-of-the-art instrument will inspire you to push your playing to new heights.
Other features include sealed locking tuning machines, chrome hardware and bone nut. Includes premium molded hardshell case.
