Enhanced playability
The headline says it all. The American Ultra Stratocaster HSS was made to be played. Hard. For starters, this solidbody electric guitar’s roasted maple neck boasts a silky-smooth satin finish. You also get Fender’s Modern “D” profile which facilitates fast playing without feeling like you’re playing a baseball bat. This Strat has a compound-radius fingerboard with 22 medium-jumbo frets, making it just as easy to play chords near the nut as it is to melt faces at the higher frets. The fretboard also has rolled edges to give you hours of playing comfort. Soloing is easy, too, thanks to the tapered neck heel and the extra hand contour on the lower cutaway. Simply put, the American Ultra Strat HSS has a neck with upgraded features that the discerning player cannot pass up.
State-of-the-art noiseless electronics
The Fender American Ultra Stratocaster is loaded with three Ultra Noiseless Vintage single-coil pickups. Fender’s noiseless circuitry allows you to get all the spanky Strat goodness with zero hum. Seriously, plug it into a British high-gain amp and crank it. You won’t get any hum from the pickups: this Strat has a silky-smooth 5-way switch that gives you tons of tones to choose from. And when you press down on the volume pot, you’ll find the S-1 switch, which adds the neck pickup to any switch position.
High-performance hardware
From neo-soul to funk to rock to full-bore metal shredding, the American Ultra Stratocaster HSS’s hardware can tackle it all with aplomb. This axe’s Deluxe Synchronized Tremolo features a modern 2-point design, durable bent-steel saddles, a steel trem block, and a convenient pop-in arm. Moreover, its Deluxe locking tuners ensure rock-solid stability and lightning-fast string changes. The guitarists here have found the American Ultra Strat HSS’s tuning stability to rival some double-locking systems in all but the most depraved of whammy-abuse scenarios.
