QUARTERSAWN MAPLE FINGERBOARD
WITH LUMINLAY SIDE DOTSMade for speed, comfort and facility, the 10”-14” compound-radius fingerboard is rounded near the nut, becoming increasingly flatter as it nears the upper register. Luminlay glow-in the-dark side dots provide exceptional visibility even on the darkest stages while “Ultra” rolled fingerboard edges and a silky, smooth “Ultra” satin finish make the neck effortless to play.
ADVANCED ELECTRONICS
AND S-1 SWITCHINGThe Ultra II Noiseless Vintage pickups are responsive and expressive, delivering signature Tele twang for exceptional Fender tone without hum. Ultra II Noiseless pickups feature an evolved architecture of specialized stacked coils with the top coil wound around Alnico V rod magnets to produce true single-coil Fender tone, and the isolated bottom coil calibrated to preserve the tone and simply reject hum. The patented S-1 switch selects between series or parallel wiring for added tonal range, while the treble bleed circuit maintains your highs at any volume.
