It looks the stratocaster variant is also available at this price. I think either would sound great in my studio... Studio apartment after my wife divorces me for buying this guitar.

I must resist. (as I browse the strat 3 times an hour)

I have an Am Pro II Strat and find the pickups just too noisy (outside of positions 2 & 4). I agree that the ultra noiseless don't quite have the jangle, but all 4 settings on my Ultra Tele are highly usable. The S-1 switch does a nice job of thickening up the sound in the middle position. Horses for courses, but combined with the compound radius D neck, it's a real tone machine, IMO...
I'm glad the Fender noiseless pickups work for you but IMHO the Fender noiseless pickups just don't sound like Fender single coil pickups. I'm an old fart that plugs straight into vintage tube amps and the Fender Noiseless pickups I've tried for guitar and Jazz Bass lack the "sparkle" and "air" of single coil pickups. They seemed kinda dull and lifeless to me

I bought this one for same price on St. Pat's day deal (on sale then because of the green). My fretboard is pretty dark. The noiseless pickups are not what you're looking for to give "Tele twang". I swapped mine out for a Jason Isbell set. Fender uses quick connect connections for the Ultras so it's an easy swap back to stock. This is a good deal at $1599.
just wondering, did you pay $1599 or $1699? i called on the 1st of the month, bc the sale ended, and got em to $1650, but I just blurted that out like a fool when the MF Texas Tea Ultra deal I mentioned I think would've gotten me a bit better offer. It had been a long day and now I'm kicking myself, but I just got the guitar and i do like it.
thx for your time!
