Fender Stratocaster American Ultra II HSS EB Noble Blue

Top of the American Ultra II Series

Made in the USA, this American Ultra II Stratocaster embodies Fender's most modern approach: refined ergonomics, advanced electronics, and impeccable finishes. The "Noble Blue" color and black anodized aluminum pickguard emphasize its premium positioning, while the sculpted heel and Ultra bevels provide benchmark playability on stage and in the studio.

For Whom and Which Styles?

Designed for intermediate to professional guitarists, it is also suitable for ambitious beginners seeking a durable instrument. Its palette covers pop, funk, rock, blues, fusion, and hard rock; the humbucker split expands the range to more "single-coil" tones for country, indie, or session work.

The Sound

The alder/maple combination with ebony fingerboard delivers attack, clarity, and precise low mids. The Haymaker humbucker provides a dense and articulate grain, ideal for modern leads and rhythms; split via the S-1 switch, it regains the snap of a single coil. The Ultra II Noiseless Hot Strat pickups in the neck and middle positions offer Strat brightness without hum, with generous dynamics. The 2-point vibrato, stainless steel saddles, and cold-rolled steel block enhance sustain, intonation, and tuning stability, complemented by locking tuners for reliable tuning retention.

Recommended Compatible Accessories

To maintain the original feel and balance, use a set of nickel strings .009-.042 (Fender 250L). Add a quality 6.35 mm instrument cable for stage and studio, as well as a standard strap (2-button attachment) to secure the instrument. The Deluxe Molded Case is included.
