This is my 5th new Fender guitar I've purchased from Adorama. The previous 4 were great instruments and this one is no exception. The fit and finish on the Ultra Luxe does seem to stand a notch above my American Pro II I just got. Every new fender has been absolutely stunning in person compared to the stock photos including this 2tsb strat. The playability is perfect - I typically like 7.25" or 9.5" radius vintage vibe strats but I took a chance on this "modern" strat. I'm so glad I did because even though it strays a bit from the original recipe it still feels like a strat. I will admit that I'm not a fan of noiseless pickups and I already knew I would be replacing those before the guitar even arrived so I can't really comment too much on those - just something about classic single coils that all noiseless pickups are lacking in the top end. If I played in a live setting more or had 60 cycle hum issues then these would be more welcomed because honestly in a mix you're not going to tell a difference and these get you 95% of the way there however for me playing in my bedroom true singles are for me. Aside from that (which I can't hold against the guitar) this thing is fantastic! I went over this guitar with a magnifying glass for an hour when I opened it and honestly everything was perfect and the attention to detail was so immaculate I would have thought this came from the custom shop! I would have preferred a rosewood board but for the price I couldn't pass up on this maple one that was on sale! Oh and one other thing - the sunburst ultra luxe's are ash, NOT alder. Not sure why Adorama has these listed as alder especially when most see ash as a superior body wood.
