As part of Fender’s most advanced series, the American Ultra II lineup uses premium materials, precision craftsmanship, and cutting-edge design to create instruments that redefine quality and durability.

This Meteora Bass is built with a select alder body featuring sculpted contours for player comfort. The quartersawn maple neck, with its Modern D profile and smooth Ultra Satin finish, ensures effortless playability. Choose between an ebony or quartersawn maple fingerboard, each with a 10”-14” compound radius, medium-jumbo frets, Ultra rolled edges, Luminlay® side dots, and a Graph Tech® TUSQ® nut. The tapered neck heel and sculpted body make accessing higher frets seamless, while the truss rod at the headstock allows for quick adjustments.

Equipped with custom Haymaker™ bass humbuckers, this bass provides a powerful tonal range—from deep, resonant lows to punchy mids and bright highs—all hum-free. Its redesigned preamp offers unprecedented tonal control with S-1™ switching for active/passive operation, passive tone control, and a 3-band active EQ with switchable midrange frequencies. Additional features include a HiMass™ bridge with top-load or string-through options, lightweight tuners, knurled aluminum knobs, and a durable 1-ply anodized aluminum pickguard.

Blending iconic style with advanced features, the American Ultra II Meteora Bass lets you achieve exceptional tone and limitless versatility. Explore it now at Haggerty's Music.
