An iconic figure in modern music (pop, rock, blues, funk, etc.) since the 1950s, Fender was founded in 1946 by Leo Fender in Anaheim, California. Through legendary guitar models like the Telecaster and Stratocaster, and cult-classic amps like the Twin and Tweed, Fender revolutionized music and remains the most sought-after brand by musicians looking for character and authenticity in their sound.
When Fender crafts a superstrat, the result is nothing short of extraordinary: the Fender Stratocaster American Ultra II pushes the boundaries of the Strat's expressive range, elevating it to new heights while retaining the essence of what makes it a musical icon. This production model boasts craftsmanship that rivals that of Custom Shop quality. The meticulously chosen alder body is exceptionally resonant, and the Solar Flare finish paired with the ebony fingerboard exudes both the flashy character of the 80s and the timeless elegance of the 60s (though we do acknowledge, the hairstyles of those eras weren't exactly their best).
The neck provides unparalleled comfort, making the experience of the ebony fingerboard on a Strat truly delightful. Fender has likely realized a dream that many guitarists have harbored. The ultra-flat compound radius ensures effortless playing techniques, and the rolled fingerboard edges, medium jumbo frets, and meticulous attention to detail create an incredibly smooth playing experience.
The Fender Ultra II Noiseless Vintage Hot Strat Single-Coil pickups deliver on their promise: they offer the classic Strat tone with a robust signal capable of driving amps into overdrive swiftly (only a Magnatone and a Fender Super Reverb have managed to resist, though not for long). The hardware is impeccable, featuring top-tier components from the bridge to the tuners, including the nut, all built with state-of-the-art technology. You could drop it, jump on it – it will stay in tune (disclaimer: we haven't actually tested that). This guitar truly lives up to its name: Ultra.
