75th Anniversary American Ultra II Telecaster

Commemorating the Telecaster's 75th Anniversary, the Fender American Ultra II Telecaster represents the culmination of three-quarters of a century of innovation, expertise and relentless pursuit of perfection. This milestone instrument features a select alder body with sculpted body contours, finished in our stunning Liquid Gold�a lustrous, deep metallic finish that captures and reflects light with mesmerizing depth and richness. This premium finish combines golden warmth with sophisticated elegance, creating a guitar that's as visually striking on stage as it is sonically powerful. For effortless playability, the quartersawn maple neck features our Modern �D� profile and smooth Ultra Satin finish. Ebony 10"-14" compound radius fingerboards feature Ultra rolled edges, medium-jumbo frets, custom lap steel inlays, Luminlay side dots and Graph Tech TUSQ nut. The tapered neck heel and sculpted body contours allow unparalleled access to the higher register.

Under the hood, a 75th Anniversary Noiseless� Single-Coil in the neck position pairs with with a 75th Anniversary Fastlanebridge humbucker pickup in the bridge to deliver sweet crystalline cleans, snappy Tele twang and beefy growl, all without a hint of hum. Dual patented S-1switches unlock unprecedented tonal versatility�one cleverly engages coil tapping for the rail pickup, while the second puts the pickups in series for even more sonic options. Additional road-ready features include 6-saddle string-through-body bridge with chromed brass saddles, Deluxe locking tuners, knurled aluminum knobs and 1-ply anodized aluminum pickguard.
