2021 Fender USA Ultra Stratocaster Electric Guitar



Overview: I gave this guitar a level/dress of the frets and setup sometime in recent memory. This time it came back in for resale from the customer (he's just not playing Strats at the moment) and it was nice to get to know it again.


These Fender Ultra models are sort-of like a Suhr version of a Strat -- with modern features but retro styling. To start-with, it has Noiseless pickups which keep it quiet and behaving at gigs, though slightly mellower in tone as-compared with a "true single coil" Strat configuration. It's also got a 2-point trem bridge design (more stable and adjustable) and hardened saddles. Finally, it has a push-button that adds the neck pickup to any other psoiton on the 5-way switch so you can get the neck+bridge and all-three-on positions folks tend to hunt-for when they get to modding their Strats.


This guitar's in good health, looks snazzy (sunburst with a mint guard), and handles like a champ.


Repairs included: Previously, I gave it a level/dress of the frets and a setup. This time around I rewired the original pickups back into their harness (they'd been swapped for some different pickups), cleaned it up, and set it up. It's playing bang-on and ready to serve.
