American Ultra II is Fender's most advanced series, and this Stratocaster HSS in Gold Dust pairs premium materials with genuinely useful modern electronics. A select alder body with Ultra contours and a roasted AAA flame maple neck (Modern D profile, Ultra Satin finish) make for effortless, all-day playability, while the compound-radius fingerboard stays comfortable whether you're playing open chords or bending high up the neck.
The Haymaker humbucker and Ultra II Noiseless Hot Strat single-coils cover everything from glassy cleans to searing rock leads, and Fender's patented S-1 switch splits the humbucker for extra tonal range. An Ultra Blaster preamp adds a punchy dB boost at the flick of a switch — genuinely useful for solos or a heavier set. A 2-point American Ultra tremolo with locking tuners keeps everything in tune, and a deluxe moulded case is included.
Gold Dust is a limited-edition finish for the American Ultra II range. Stock is limited — contact A Strings, official Fender dealer for Wales, to check availability.
