Fender American Ultra II Stratocaster HSS Graffiti Yellow Limited

The Fender American Ultra II Stratocaster HSS in the limited-edition Graffiti Yellow finish tops Fender's most advanced instrument line, built for players who want every modern feature Fender offers in an HSS-configured Strat. A select alder body with sculpted contours wears a gloss urethane Graffiti Yellow finish, a color exclusive to this limited run, set off by a 3-ply black pickguard for high contrast against the bright, retro-loud paint. At 8.18 lbs., the sculpted contours keep it comfortable across a full set, and the eye-catching limited-edition color makes it stand out fast in a room full of Strats.

The bolt-on roasted maple neck is carved to Fender's Modern "D" profile (.820" at the 1st fret, .870" at the 12th) with a smooth Ultra Satin urethane finish for a fast, effortless feel. A roasted maple fretboard with 7mm black pearloid dot inlays runs a 10"-14" compound radius with rolled edges, medium jumbo stainless steel frets, and a 25.5" scale length with a 1.685" Graph Tech TUSQ nut, aided by a tapered neck heel and body contours that open up unrestricted access to the upper frets. A 2-point American Ultra synchronized tremolo with polished stainless steel block saddles and a cold-rolled steel block delivers smooth, stable vibrato and added sustain, paired with Deluxe cast/sealed locking tuners for rock-solid tuning.

Electronics pair a pair of Fender Custom Shop Texas Special Strat single-coils in the neck and middle with a Seymour Duncan Antiquity humbucker in the bridge, giving this HSS Strat both classic single-coil chime and real humbucker output in one guitar. Run through a volume, two tone controls, and a 5-way blade selector, with Fender's S-1 switch splitting the bridge humbucker for an additional single-coil-voiced tone, the pickup set covers everything from glassy, quacky Strat tones to a fatter, more aggressive bridge voice built for rock leads. Whether you're a Strat player who wants humbucker punch on tap, a working musician who needs one guitar to cover clean and high-gain tones, or a collector chasing the Graffiti Yellow limited-edition run, this American Ultra II Stratocaster HSS delivers. (Serial #US26003148) It includes a Fender Deluxe hardshell case. Order today from Brian's Guitars, your authorized Fender dealer.
