“American Ultra is our most advanced series of guitars and basses for discerning players who demand the ultimate in precision, performance and tone. The American Ultra Stratocaster features a unique “Modern D” neck profile with Ultra rolled fingerboard edges for hours of playing comfort, and the tapered neck heel allows easy access to the highest register. A speedy 10”-14” compound-radius fingerboard with 22 medium-jumbo frets means effortless and accurate soloing, while the Ultra Noiseless™ Vintage pickups and advanced wiring options provide endless tonal possibilities – without hum. The sculpted rear body contours are as beautiful as they are functional and the S-1 switch adds the neck pickup in to any switch position. This versatile, state-of-the-art instrument will inspire you to push your playing to new heights.” - From the Fender Website

For the player with vintage taste but modern necessities, the American Ultra Stratocaster from Fender is the next big thing. This guitar fills both roles with ease, making it the perfect tool for today's gigging musician. The pickups have that sound that players have been lusting over since the mid 50s. The neck has the familiar comfort that Stratocasters are known for, but with a compound radius that makes playing higher on the neck much easier. One could easily think of this instrument as a piece of fusion with something for just about anyone.
