Fender is rising up to the challenge of their rivals with this stunning Tiger’s Eye finish exclusive to Guitar Center
Fender has just unveiled a wild new finish that’s available on the American Ultra Telecaster, Stratocaster and Precision Bass
Here at Guitar World, we love seeing our favorite models reimagined in bold new colorways – so you can imagine how excited we got when we caught a glimpse of the new Tiger’s Eye versions of the Fender Ultra Series. The Stratocaster, Telecaster and Precision Bass are all getting the flame-top treatment, with a black headstock, matching black plastics and a stunning amber burst finish.
Now, as these guitars are part of the beloved Ultra series, they aren’t just style over substance – there are plenty of high-end specs to get excited about, aside from the glorious new finish.
Each model comes equipped with a Modern D neck, which features an asymmetrical contour, a 10"-14" compound radius fingerboard, and 22 medium jumbo frets. This makes the Ultra models among the most comfortable for players seeking a contemporary instrument that will keep up with the demands of the modern guitarist.
Rounding out the specs sheet is a set of Ultra Noiseless Vintage pickups and advanced wiring, which provide the classic tones you’ve come to expect from a Fender instrument, just without the pesky hum and unwanted noise.
The limited edition Tiger’s Eye models are currently exclusive to Guitar Center but also available to purchase at Musician’s Friend, one of Guitar Center’s subsidiary companies.
