Just purchased a slightly used (12 months old) Fender Ultra Stratocaster in the rather eye-catching Texas Tea colour scheme. Iâd been looking at the Ultra Strat series for a while but wasnât sure if I wanted to pay the higher price. Iâve been playing a Fender Player Pluss HSS Strat for a while and have been completely happy with it (the feel of the neck - the great sound/tone from the pick ups etc) But, when I was handed the Ultra in the music store I could tell that it was definitely worth the extra bucks. The neck is a modern compound which tappers from a 10" radius at the headstock to a 14" radius at the body. Itâs a totally different feel to my other Strats. The pickups are Fender Vintage Noiseless which give it a classic fender tone but without the classic hum 
It also has an S1 volume switch which allows you to include the neck pickup with both the middle and bridge pickups - this is allows you to mellow out the bridge pickup if you donât want too much of the Strat Quack. As it was a pre-loved Strat the previous owner had obviously had the initial setup done so things like the intonation, the action, pickup heights etc were all pretty spot on. I have no buyer regrets for purchasing the Ultra - Iâve been playing exclusively since I got it. I will be picking up the Player Plus again because it is also a very playable piece of kit.
Happy NGD Love the color
Happy NGD!!! Looks awesome!!!
Happy NGD, Milos! Wow thatâs a beauty! Looks fab! Enjoy! 
Didnât know that was a thing! Cool! 
Thanks Jeff - Iâd read about the âVintage Noiselessâ pickups and wasnât sure if it was just marketing hype. But they really do mute the hissy/hum that you can get with some of the older Strats while still retaining that Old School clarity.
Sweet! Like southern Texas tea!
Looks awesome. That Texas Tea is super cool. Congrats.
