Full Description
View Full DescriptionA tangy trio of noiseless single coils
Fender magic. Purring with a lively, expressive tone these ingenious pickups sing with a clear, focused voice. Crafted from alnico V magnets, they've got plenty of headroom for crunch and growl if you want to kick out some distortion yet retain the finesse for clean styles. So, get ready to indulge in all manner of shining single coil tones, because the pristine articulation of the Ultra Noiseless single coils will let you rise above a mix.
Already established as one of the most versatile instruments available, Fender have pushed that even further. Those three pickups are now backed up by S1 switching. This lets you add the neck pickup to positions one, two and three for a thicker and more dynamic sound. And yep, you can do that on the fly to change up your sound in the middle of the song. Total performance.
A new Strat experience
Stratocasters come in many shapes and sizes, particularly the necks and fretboards. The American Ultra's might just be the best yet. That's because you're getting a luscious, divinely smooth ebony surface that has carefully rolled edges. This makes for an incredibly comfortable playing experience - no sharp fret edges to worry about and thumb-over styles become a breeze.
Not to mention the premium compound radius that'll enhance your skills all over the board. With a harsher curve at the nut, chords are a cinch. Flattening out towards the top end gives you access to adventurous string bends and expressive soloing. Paired with the modern "D" shaped neck that features a non-stick, frictionless satin finish and you've got the ultimate riffing machine.
Fuel your performance with expression
It doesn't get more creative than using a whammy bar in performance. Hendrix used one in his Woodstock performance. Jeff Beck made it his own. And now, you can inject your performance with your own creative flair. Whether you're unleashing screeching dive bombs, giving your solo that extra kick, or simply decorating your chords with some elegant shimmer – the famed Strat tremolo system gives players an even bigger platform to experiment their sound with. A Strat wouldn't be a Strat without it. So it goes without saying that the American Ultra features the iconic tremolo bridge design, for even more possibilities in your sound.
