Ultra HSS Pickups

This guitar offers an exceptionally versatile range of tones thanks to its 70th Anniversary Ultra Noiseless Strat pickups and 70th Anniversary Ultra Quadra Tap Humbucker. The Ultra Noiseless single-coil pickups provide hum-free, flawless vintage Fender tones. When combined with the Ultra Quadra Tap humbucker's four unique voices, this calibrated set provides unmatched dynamic Fender tone and is incredibly versatile.

The 'D' Shaped Roasted Maple Neck of Today

Roasted maple adds sustain, resonance, and resilience to variations in humidity and temperature. The modern "D" shape neck profile, slim with broad shoulders and "Ultra" rolled fingerboard edges, is suitable for any style of playing. For high-performance playability, a specially designed neck finish combines a nitrocellulose lacquer headstock with the fluid feel of a satin nitrocellulose lacquer fingerboard and a smooth, silky hand-rubbed oil-based urethane on the back.

Modern Electronics

The Ultra Quadra Tap humbucker is split into a potent single-coil by the S-1 switch on the volume knob, and the hot voicing is activated in both split and humbucking modes by the S-1 switch on tone 1. A treble bleed circuit also keeps your highs consistent at any volume.

Locking Tuners   

Locking tuning machines are a high-performance feature that provide increased tuning stability and facilitate quick and simple string changes.
