The American Ultra Luxe Series. Blending classic design with supreme, modern features and craftsmanship, Fender's American Ultra Luxe Series is here to rule the world of guitars. Made in the US with superb attention to detail, they are instruments without limits, and will immediately become your favourite to play. Whether you’re taking it out on tour, recording tracks professionally in the studio, or even practising in your bedroom, you can expect the ultimate performance from your American Ultra instrument – no matter what the situation.
Total tonal clarity
No one should have to compromise on their tone. And a selection of Ultra Noiseless Hot single-coil and humbucking Strat pickups ensure you don't have to. The clue's in the name. Eliminating the infamous 60-cycle hum out of your sound, these slashing single-coils kick out all the vintage tones you'd expect out of a classic Fender. But with more clarity than ever before, your lead playing will sear through the mix, while your chords maintain exceptional definition. So you can showcase your talent, and be heard on stage.
Hailed as one of the most versatile instruments out there, the Strat has truly earned its iconic status. And the American Ultra Luxe HSS Strat maintains its flawless reputation, offering enough tonal capacity to satisfy any genre. An Ultra Double Tap humbucker sits in the bridge position, offering a thicker, hotter sound than that of a single-coil. So, for those scorching lead tones, you can simply switch the 5-way selector and let loose with your playing. It's your sound after all.
The 'Luxe' treatment
Nothing but the best. Fender's years of experimentation and design innovation have yielded some of the greatest necks known to man. This one is no different. In fact, the Ultra "C" maple neck on the American Ultra Luxe Stratocaster could be the best you ever hold, being smooth, comfortable, and easy to navigate. With the superb satin finish, you'll find your hand glides along its surface, making fret transitions a breeze.
Take your fingers for a ride. The rosewood fretboard will have them dancing along its surface as fast as you like. The modern innovation of its Ultra rolled fret edges provide a level of comfort that simply can't be competed with. A beautifully warm resonance adds a richness and depth to your notes, balancing out the brightness of the maple neck. Combined beautifully with its tapered neck heel, you'll find that you can solo for days on this perfectly crafted tool. Your inspiration will know no bounds.
Lock 'n' load
So you like vibrato? With a Floyd Rose Original Double-Locking Tremolo, you can have all the vibrato in the world. A 'floating' bridge, it will let you bend notes up or down with ease using the whammy bar – and you can do divebombs too. The tuning stability is tight, the resonance is powerful, and the feel is beyond words. Built to a professional standard, this is a fully authentic Floyd Rose bridge – nothing beats the original. You can also fine-tune the strings using the fine tuning screws – without having to take off the locking nut. If you’re looking for a bridge which will enhance your riffs and give you pure confidence on stage, this is it.
