Independent shopping perspective
Finished in Noble Blue, this American Ultra II Stratocaster teams an ebony compound-radius fingerboard with a quartersawn maple Modern D neck. Three Ultra II Noiseless Vintage Strat pickups feed a 5-way blade switch, and the master-volume S-1 expands positions 1 and 2 by adding the neck pickup. Rolled fingerboard edges, a tapered heel and sculpted body contours focus the design on comfortable access farther up the neck. The guitar uses a 2-point American Ultra synchronized tremolo, locking tuners and Luminlay side dots, and comes with a deluxe molded case.
