- Hi, everyone. Allen Abbassi here with Fender.
Today, we're checking out
the American Ultra Luxe Stratocaster guitars.
American Ultra Luxe is Fender's most advanced series,
featuring high-performance necks, pickups,
electronics, hardware, and finishes.
Let's get started with the American Ultra Luxe Stratocaster.
The American Ultra Luxe Stratocaster features
our incredible augmented D neck profile,
a hybrid shape with shoulders that soften near the 12th fret
providing an incredibly comfortable playing field
as you travel up the neck.
This guitar also features a Fender first:
stainless steel frets.
Significantly harder than traditional nickel silver frets,
stainless steel frets are exceptionally durable
making them the perfect choice
for high performance instruments.

Other features include an alder body,
a speedy 10 to 14 inch compound-radius fingerboard
with smooth rolled edges,
a tapered neck heel and sculpted rear body contour
that make it easy to access the highest frets
and to painted headstock for a classy, upscale look.

The Ultra Luxe Stratocaster is outfitted
with Ultra Noiseless Stratocaster single coils
that provide crystalline and touch-sensitive tones
with no hum.
An S-1 switch in the volume knob
adds the neck pickup to positions one and two,
providing two additional tonal options
for ultimate versatility.
The guitar is available in two finishes:
traditional two-color sunburst
and a stunning plasma red burst.

Now over to the American Ultra Luxe Stratocaster
Floyd Rose HSS.
This Strat has all the same great features
as the American Ultra Luxe Stratocaster,
from the augmented D neck, to the stainless steel frets,
to the painted headstock,
but it's loaded with an Ultra Double Tap pickup
in the bridge position for full rich humbucking tones.
It features our patented Double Tap technology
which is activated by the S-1 switch on the volume knob,
delivering dynamic musical single-coil sounds
unavailable from any other humbucking pickup.

Finally, this guitar also features
a double-locking Floyd Rose tremolo system
which provides extraordinary tuning stability,
even with the most extreme dive bomb effects.
The available colors on this model are mystic black
and silver burst.
