Fender American Ultra II Stratocaster Left-Hand MN Avalanche Left-Handed Electric Guitar with Case

General

Piling on the innovations, the American Ultra II Stratocaster is the most advanced member of the Fender range. Expect a seamless blend of high-grade materials, high-precision build quality and progressive design details. The instantly familiar solid body has been carved from a slice of hand-selected alder, finished with deep and comfortable contouring, and topped with a full set of three Ultra II Noiseless Vintage Stratocaster pickups that support pure, hum-free Fender tone. Pop the S-1 switch and the neck pickup is added to positions 1 and 2, giving you a six-string electric guitar with no-less-than seven possible voices. This the left-handed version.

The Fender American Ultra II Stratocaster: A Fully Refined Neck

The neck has been carved from quarter-sawn maple, ensuring a stable base while the D-profile carve and an Ultra-Satin finish support a fast and smooth feel in your fret hand - even after a long playing session. The compound fretboard radius, which gradually warps from 10 inches at the headstock to 14 inches at the body gives the playing comfort a further boost, lending chords down the low-end a snug and controlled grip, and licks and solos a light and effortless feel further up. Meanwhile, the neck plate has been rounded off, giving your fret-hand smooth access to every last one of the twenty-two medium-jumbo frets and a set of Luminlay side dots support note-navigation on darker stages.

High-End Hardware

From there, this American Ultra II Series Stratocaster has been furnished with a modern synchronised two-point tremolo bridge kitted out with stainless steel block-saddles and a cold-rolled steel tremolo block - all essential details when it comes to taking the sustain, the resonance, the sound and the response of this instrument to a higher level. The fitted set of Deluxe Cast/Sealed Short Post Locking machine heads shouldn't be left out either, since they don't just guarantee more solid tuning stability (especially when coupled with the Graph Tech TUSQ nut) but help speed up string changes.
