A "60s Strat" Reimagined with the Ultra Luxe Spirit
This American Ultra Luxe Vintage '60s Stratocaster HSS combines Fender's vintage aesthetic and character with decidedly modern choices. It retains the Stratocaster fundamentals but optimized for modern demands: precise playability, easy access to upper frets, and components designed to withstand rehearsals, studio, and stage without compromise.
Who Is It For, and What Styles?
Designed for intermediate to expert guitarists seeking a highly expressive Strat capable of chaining detailed cleans, funky rhythms, pop, blues, and rock, while maintaining a credible gain reserve thanks to the bridge humbucker. The compound radius and stainless steel frets make it a natural ally for clean bends, fast playing, and high-neck solos.
Sound
The alder body delivers the typical Fender balance: crisp attack, present mids, and firm lows, ideal for a guitar responsive to right-hand nuances. The Pure Vintage '61 pickups provide the expected snap and brightness on the neck and middle positions, perfect for crystalline arpeggios or singing leads. At the bridge, the Haymaker Humbucker adds body, articulation, and a denser crunch, great for rock rhythms and thicker solos. The S-1 switch with Custom Double Tap technology further expands the palette, offering tonal variations without losing the instrument's identity.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
This guitar comes with a Deluxe hard case, ready for daily transport and protection. To maintain the original string gauge, a set of .009-.042 nickel strings perfectly suits the factory tension and feel.
