Ultimate performance

The American Ultra Series. Blending classic design with supreme, modern features and craftsmanship, Fender's American Ultra 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.

Perfect tone

Packed with punch. Each of the Ultra Noiseless Vintage Tele single coils flows the most luscious, vibrant tone you'll ever hear. Dancing with brightness, clarity, and vintage goodness, it will make each riff gleam with pure expression. This colossal tonal range allows you ample variety, from playing some wailing lead lines to locking down some tight rhythms. These pickups will ensure that every detail of your sound comes out.

The bridge pickup is tight and twangy, with a punchy response which rings with midrange bite. It'll bring definition to rhythm playing and individual riffs, ensuring they are heard in any mix. Switch to the neck and you get a beautifully smooth, fat response which is guaranteed to make everything you play sing. No matter what genre you're into, these dynamic pickups are more than capable of handling it.

The neck of dreams

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 Modern 'D' maple neck on the American Ultra Telecaster could be the best you ever hold. It's 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. And the rolled edges make for an even more comfortable playing experience. Liberate your licks.

Riveting rosewood fretboard

Take your fingers for a ride with the rosewood fretboard that will have them dancing all over its sleek surface. With a beautifully warm resonance, it adds a richness and depth to your notes, balancing out the brightness of the maple neck. Velvety smooth and boasting an incredibly satisfying feel, you'll find that you can solo for days on this perfectly crafted board. Your inspiration will know no bounds once you've tasted this Fender fingerboard.

The hardest hardware

It won't let you down. Ever. A guitar is only as good as the hardware holding it together. Luckily, Fender have fitted the American Ultra Telecaster with a goldmine of quality components to ensure it always plays perfectly. The six-saddle American Tele bridge comes with chromed brass saddles, and offers unparalleled tuning stability. Deluxe cast/sealed locking tuners further enhance tuning stability, keeping your strings in a vice grip – you'll always sound exceptional. Coming with an elite moulded case, you can take this beauty anywhere with full protection. With all the hallmarks of a truly outstanding instrument, it'll bring you a lifetime of musical happiness.
