Fender Stratocaster American Ultra II HSS MN Sinister Red

Neck, Fingerboard and Headstock

The slim "Modern D" neck profile with its rounded fretboard edges ensures first-class playing comfort. In order to optimize access to the upper parts of the fretboard, it was given a 10 "-14" compound radius and a neck base with a tapered design. Extremely useful detail: The truss rod can be adjusted from the outside via the opening at the neck end. The locking tuners installed on the headstock ensure high tuning stability and make it much easier to change strings. Pure high performance! And just have a look … You will quickly notice that the Fender logo does not shine in gold as usual, but here in a shiny silver tone. Very nice, indeed!

Pickups and Hardware

Two hum-free single coil Ultra Noiseless II ™ Hot Strat pickups in the middle and neck position as well as a powerful Haymaker ™ humbucker in the bridge – wow, what more could you want! This smashing pickup combination rocks! In addition, the bridge humbucker can be split using the push/pull volume control (S-1 switch), giving you an additional classic 3-singlecoil circuit. You can't get more flexible! A built-in treble bleed inside the electronics also prevents loss of height when the volume is turned back. These modern and extremely practical features open up unlimited sound possibilities for the Strat player! A useful detail: The vibrato handle is not – as usual – screwed, but plugged in.
