A 60s Strat Reimagined in the Ultra Luxe Spirit
The American Ultra Luxe series embodies Fender's high-end performance line. In this Vintage 60s iteration, the goal is clear: preserve the iconic DNA of the 60s Stratocaster while adding contemporary refinements. The result is a timeless solid body electric guitar designed for discerning musicians who want a modern feel without sacrificing Fender character.
For Which Guitarists and Styles?
This Stratocaster is primarily aimed at intermediate to expert guitarists seeking a premium instrument, reliable both in the studio and on stage. The SSS configuration and advanced ergonomics make it ideal for blues, pop, funk, indie, classic rock, and any genres where articulation and dynamics matter. The compound radius facilitates both chords and modern bends and phrasing.
The Sound
The alder body provides the typical Fender balance: present mids, precise attack, and good note clarity. The Pure Vintage '61 Single-Coil Strat pickups deliver the quintessential Strat tone: bright highs, very "quack" positions 2 and 4, and a warm neck pickup perfect for bluesy riffs and melodic lines. The S-1 switch expands the palette by adding the neck pickup to positions 1 and 2, useful for thickening a bridge tone or achieving fuller combinations without losing clarity. The whole setup remains expressive, dynamic, and highly touch-sensitive.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
This guitar comes with a Deluxe hardshell case, ideal for daily transport and protection. It is factory-strung with Fender USA 250L (.009-.042) strings: staying with this gauge preserves the intended feel (vibrato, bends) and overall balance of the instrument.
