Fender's Ultra range gets a wild makeover - exclusive to Guitar Center, the new Tiger's Eye finish looks to be a roaring success
Available on the Strat, Tele and P-Bass, this limited edition finish won't be around for long, so you'll want to pounce on it while you can
We can't help but get excited when we see new colour options for our favourite Fender models – and the new Tiger’s Eye Fender Ultra is among the most striking variation we've seen in a long time.
Thankfully, the Stratocaster, Telecaster and Precision Bass are all available in this wild new finish and feature a flame maple top, black headstock, matching black plastics and a stunning amber burst finish.
If you are familiar with Fender's premium American-made model, you'll be well aware of just how highly these guitars are spec'd.
Featuring a modern D neck profile, asymmetrical contour, a 10"-14" compound radius fingerboard, 22 medium jumbo frets, a real bone nut and a set of Ultra Noiseless Vintage pickups, this is the most advanced series of guitars and basses Fender currently produces.
While the limited edition Tiger’s Eye models are listed as exclusive to Guitar Center, they are also available to purchase at Musician’s Friend, one of Guitar Center’s subsidiary companies.

I'm a Senior Deals Writer at MusicRadar, and I'm responsible for writing and maintaining buyer's guides on the site - but that's not all I do. As part of my role, I also scour the internet for the best deals I can find on gear and get hands-on with the products for reviews. My gear reviews have been published in prominent publications, including Total Guitar and Future Music magazine, as well as Guitar World.com. I've also had the privilege of interviewing everyone from Slash to Yungblud, as well as members of Sum 41, Foo Fighters, The Offspring, Fever 333 and many more.
I have a massive passion for anything that makes a sound, particularly guitars, pianos, and recording equipment. In a previous life, I worked in music retail, giving advice on all aspects of music creation and selling everything from digital pianos to electric guitars, entire PA systems, and ukuleles. I'm also a fully qualified sound engineer who holds a first-class Bachelor's degree in Creative Sound Production from the University of Abertay and I have plenty of experience working in various venues around Scotland.
