Description
Experience a beautifully modern iteration of Stratocaster design with the Fender American Ultra Strat. Built for discerning players seeking the ultimate in precision, performance and tone, this innovative redesign of an iconic instrument provides unparalleled playability and sonic versatility.
Ergonomic Modern D Neck Profile and Compound-Radius Fingerboard
The American Ultra Stratocaster features Fender's Modern D neck profile with rolled fingerboard edges, providing hours of playing comfort, while the tapered neck heel allows effortless access to higher frets. The speedy 10"–14" compound-radius fingerboard hosts 22 medium-jumbo frets for fluid lead playing.
Proprietary Ultra Noiseless Pickups
The American Ultra Stratocaster comes equipped with a full complement of Fender's Ultra Noiseless pickups, including two single coils (neck and middle) and an Ultra Double Tap humbucker (bridge). These pickups were designed to capture the articulate, glassy tone of vintage single coils without the hum, allowing crystal-clear cleans, punchy rhythms and searing leads.
Double Tap Humbucker Bridge Pickup
The bridge Ultra Double Tap humbucker can be tapped for single-coil tones, allowing a wider range of Strat tones than ever before. With the middle pickup engaged, the two inner coils of the humbucker are tapped, producing a tone similar to a vintage single coil. When only the bridge pickup is selected, both coils are tapped for a bright, punchy single-coil tone.
Additional Appointments Provide Precision and Stability
Locking tuning machines provide exceptionally precise and stable tuning. The contoured alder body hosts a vintage-style tremolo bridge for expressive string-bending effects. This Strat is also designed to turn heads with its Ultraburst finish featuring a distinct woodgrain, giving it a unique aesthetic touch.
This Fender American Ultra Stratocaster represents the classic model in its modern form with high-end accoutrements. Players seeking the ultimate in tone, performance and playability will find an inspiring creative companion in this premium instrument.
