collapse expand iconDescription

The Fender American Ultra Luxe Vintage '60s Stratocaster electric guitar represents the peak of modern Fender craftsmanship paired with unmistakable vintage style. Built from premium alder with elegant body contours, it wears an Heirloom nitrocellulose lacquer finish that delivers a naturally worn-in look and feel. A quartersawn maple neck with a Modern D profile, rosewood fingerboard and medium jumbo stainless-steel frets ensures effortless playability. Powered by Pure Vintage '61 Strat pickups with an S-1 switch, it delivers authentic Strat chime with expanded tonal flexibility. From its fast neck to its precision hardware, this Stratocaster is designed for serious performance.

Fender Pure Vintage '61 Pickups With S-1 Switching

The American Ultra Luxe Vintage '60s Stratocaster is loaded with three Pure Vintage '61 single-coil pickups, capturing the glassy highs, punchy mids and dynamic response that defined early '60s Fender tone. The standard five-way blade switch covers all the classic Strat positions, while the discreet S-1 switch adds the neck pickup into positions 1 and 2, unlocking warm, full-bodied combinations perfect for blues, jazz and rhythm work. Whether you're chasing shimmering cleans or searing leads, these pickups deliver true vintage character with the clarity and articulation today's players demand.

Modern D Maple Neck Design for Effortless Playability

A quartersawn maple neck with a Modern D profile provides a comfortable, substantial feel without slowing your hand. The 10"–14" compound-radius rosewood fingerboard supports smooth chord work down low and precise bending up high, while Ultra rolled edges enhance comfort during long sessions. Medium jumbo stainless-steel frets offer exceptional durability and a glassy feel under the fingers. For high-register soloing, the tapered neck heel grants unhindered access to all 22 frets, making this Strat equally suited for intricate leads and fast rhythm changes.

Performance-Ready Fender Hardware

The two-point Ultra synchronized tremolo system features polished stainless-steel block saddles for smooth action and rock-solid tuning stability. A cold-rolled steel block enhances sustain and resonance, while the pop-in trem arm offers quick installation and a secure feel. Deluxe locking short-post tuners make string changes fast and keep your tuning locked in during heavy stage use. Every detail, from the nickel/chrome hardware to the aged white soft-touch control knobs, is crafted for reliability and a premium playing experience.

Heirloom Lacquer Finish With Vintage Detailing

Fender's Heirloom nitrocellulose lacquer finish not only looks stunning but also allows the wood to breathe and age gracefully over time. It comes pre-worn in select areas for a broken-in feel that's inspiring right out of the case. Vintage-style clay dot inlays, a parchment three-ply pickguard and period-inspired appointments pay homage to Fender's early '60s design language. This combination of relic-style charm and cutting-edge build quality makes the Ultra Luxe Vintage '60s Stratocaster both a visual standout and a player's workhorse.

A Premium Stratocaster for Players Who Demand the Best

From touring professionals to tone purists, the Fender American Ultra Luxe Vintage '60s Stratocaster electric guitar delivers a rare balance of classic sound and modern playability. It's an ideal choice for guitarists who need the feel and response of a high-end instrument that can handle any genre or gig.
