Description
The Fender American Ultra II Telecaster in Liquid Gold is built for players who want the feel of a modern performance instrument without giving up the soul of a classic. If you need pro-level versatility, unmatched playability, and stage-ready looks, this Tele delivers. It's part of Fender's 75th Anniversary series, and it's loaded with upgrades that make a real difference night after night.
You get a select alder body with sculpted contours for comfort, and the finish-Liquid Gold really pops in person. Under the hood, a 75th Anniversary Fastlane humbucker in the bridge and an Ultra Noiseless Tele single-coil in the neck give you a huge tonal range. It can sparkle clean, growl with grit, or cut through with focused twang. The dual S-1 switching system opens up series and parallel wiring options, letting you shift tones quickly without re-patching or adjusting your amp.
The quartersawn maple neck with a Modern "D" profile is smooth and stable, and the 10"-14" compound-radius ebony fingerboard with medium jumbo frets plays effortlessly whether you're chording or soloing. Luminlay side dots, custom lap steel inlays, and a TUSQ nut round out a neck that's ready for serious work. From the locking tuners to the 6-saddle brass bridge, this guitar is built to be pushed. We've had it in the shop-it feels every bit like the top-tier instrument it's meant to be.
