The American Ultra II Stratocaster HSS is Fender's top-tier modern Strat, built around a select alder body with sculpted contours and a tapered neck heel for easy upper-fret access. It pairs two Ultra II Noiseless Hot single coils with a Haymaker humbucker, and the S-1 switch splits the humbucker for extra tones. The quartersawn maple neck has a Modern D profile and Ultra Satin finish, and the 10"-14" compound radius board has rolled edges and medium-jumbo frets. It suits players who want a hum-free, versatile Strat with modern playability; against the previous American Ultra, the pickups, neck finish and hardware are the main updates.

Owners of the American Ultra line generally praise the playability, the rolled fretboard edges and the quiet pickups, and the Ultra II HSS is received as a refined, gig-ready Strat. Some traditionalists miss the pure single-coil character and question the styling details.
