Today we are talking an in depth look at the new for 2019 Fender American Ultra Series Stratocaster in the gorgeous Texas Tea finish. This guitar gave me quite the shock when I opened it up. Did Fender Put the Wrong Pickups in my brand new Strat? These look like Generation 4 Fender Noiseless Pickups - however, after talking with both Musician's Friend and Fender directly, they let me in on a secret. The EARLIEST Ultras used the same PCB as the old Gen 4s, but had updated staggering to the polepieces. They also marked these pickups with sharpie to get them another source of ID. As a consumer, I feel this was a very confusing way of doing things, but I thought I'd let everyone know! I'm sure this will cause someone issues somewhere down the road when they eventually sell theirs as used.
