Fender American Ultra

About Fender American Ultra Instruments

In November, 2019, Fender launched a new line of guitars and basses named the American Ultra series. The American Ultra series offers Fender's finest production instruments made in the USA. In fact, the series sits above the Fender American Professional series. Above the American Ultra series is the Fender Custom Shop tier. Musician's Friend is proud to be among the first to offer this incredible series of Fender instruments. As you'll see with the American Ultra Stratocaster and Telecaster, the Modern D shape neck is a staple of the series. This comfortable, round neck shape is well balanced from body to headstock. The Modern D shape neck is enhanced with the compound radius fingerboard. The American Ultra's compound radius fretboard has more curve toward the nut for easier chording. It flattens out towards the body for easier bending and faster, more accurate soloing.

American Ultra Features

• Alder or ash body
• Modern D neck shape
• 10"-14" compound radius fingerboard
• Ultra Noiseless pickups
• Molded hardshell case
