American Ultra II guitars and basses feature premium materials, precision craftsmanship and cutting-edge design for instruments that both advance the state-of-the-art and stand the test of time.

The Fender American Ultra II Telecaster features a select alder body with sculpted body contours.

Our patented S-1 switch cleverly engages a series wiring option for even more tonal variety.
