Fender American Ultra II Telecaster with Ebony Fretboard 2024 - Present - Solar Flare - Professional Luthier Custom Modified!

This thing was built from the ground up. With just a blank body and neck. No attention to detail was spared on this build. Every part is super premium, and the up most care was taken in its creation.

So we’ve got a black Hipshot USA bridge. Black nickel, Schaller locking staggered tuners. Black nickel Schaller strap locks. Black anodized aluminum control plate, pickguard and Fender USA, black anodized neck plate. It has a trio of Dimarzio humbuckers. A super distortion in the bridge. A fast track DP-182 blade in the middle and a DP-102 X2N in the neck.
A black DPDT mini is the 3 way pickup selector switch. It has a yellow 16mm EVH style intermittent kill switch that lights up when it’s plugged in. 2 lithium batteries supply the power for that and is affixed to the bottom of the control cavity. The wiring scheme is taken from the Brent Mason signature Tele. The outside knob are master volume and tone for the neck and bridge pickups. Also the 3way switch works in the standard way with these. The middle knob is the master volume for the center pickup and can blend into any pickup situation. The middle can also work on its own even with the main volume off.

The frets have been leveled, crowned and polished for superb performance. The fretwork from the factory, even on these ultra IIs is very disappointing. 95% of the time I find uneven frets. I have it currently setup with D’Addario 10-52s strings and is in D standard. I can set it up with your preferred setup before I ship it out.

There are a few minors scratches here and there, very hard to photograph. Everything I could find is in the pictures.
