Product Description

The Fender American Ultra II HSS Stratocaster continues Fender’s long-standing legacy of innovation by pushing boundaries; utilising modern design and technology to enhance the playing experience for modern players and styles. Beautifully presented in a Noble Blue finish with a Ebony fingerboard the Ultra II HSS Strat is built with performance and versatility in mind optimised for modern technical playing and tones.

With its select Alder body, Quartersawn Maple neck as well as a whole ensemble of deluxe features this HSS Strat has a premium feel through and through. Its Haymaker humbucker and Ultra II Noiseless Hot pickups provide powerful aggressive tones with plenty of bite while still maintaining the character and charm of a typical Fender Strat. Its D-shaped neck with its ultra-rolled fingerboard edges feels fluid and its versatile S1 switching ensures the perfect Strat tone is always available.

Key Features

  • Ultra Wood Choices - The Fender Ultra II is made from Select Alder bodies partnered with a Quartersawn Maple neck for a premium electric guitar that’s resonant and stable.
  • TUSQ - Self-lubricating, precision-cut nuts made with tone in mind!
  • Versatile S1 Switching - Split the Fender Haymaker humbucker with the Fender S1 switch for even more tonal variety and versatility.
  • Luminlay Side Dots - Designed for performance, Luminlay glow-in-the-dark side dots give you the vital assurance that your hands are in the correct position even before the stage lights go up.

Quartersawn Maple

Quartersawn necks are often regarded as one the most stand features on some of the most premium and boutique guitars ever built. Not only does quartersawn maple arguably look much more desirable thanks to its characteristic straight grain pattern; but the lumber is also typically 50% more stable than an equivalent plain-sawn piece. These straight parallel grain lines ensure the wood is less sceptical to disfiguration such as warping, shrinking, twisting and swelling that can occur in plain sawn necks. It takes a lot of skill and time to cut the Maple in such a way that the grain runs perpendicular to the face of the board and only small quantities of blanks can be cut from each log. Consequently, quartersawn lumber is much more expensive to yield however the benefits far outweigh the expenses!

Fender Ultra II HSS

The Fender Ultra II HSS Stratocaster comes equipped with an Ultra II Noiseless Hot pickup in both the neck and middle position in partnership with a Fender Haymaker humbucker in the bridge. The Haymaker provides modern and aggressive humbucking tones whereas the Noiseless Hot neck and middle pickups provide a powerful, hot-rodded single coil tone full of articulation and sparkle. They have been specially designed with an increased output ensuring that they remain balanced with the Haymaker.

Fender Ultra II

The Fender American Ultra II range of electric guitars and basses push Fender's most versatile performance-focused lineup even further beyond. With redesigned Noiseless Ultra II hot and vintage pickups as well as the introduction of the Haymaker humbucker it has never been easier to find your perfect Fender tone. The addition of quartersawn maple necks and Graph Tech TUSQ nuts provides unrivalled stability and enhanced tone and the reimagined sculpted body contours offer even greater levels of comfort, ergonomics and limitless expression. Offered in a selection of 2 of the favourite colours from the original Fender Ultra lineup as well as 4 new car-inspired colours together with the reintroduction of Ebony fingerboards and Luminlay side dots the Fender American Ultra II series keeps on pushing Fender's ideology of innovation and progression.
