Fender Ultra Luxe Floyd Rose HSS | A Modern Guitar for the Heavier Side

[@Ones_Complement]

I like how the zebra style with the black pickguard camouflages the humbucker. Low key fake out.

[@hhattingh]

I find setting up, and intonating a floyd easier than vintage bridge. My word, there are so many nuances and little tricks and it is driving me bloody insane! Felt that at first with Floyd's untill i finally figured them out. Now vintage strats...they are just going to lead to my early demise

[@nathanielvargas3863]

That silver burst strat looks so cool. I would walk be the shop everyday and look at it through the window

[@xsamitt]

That silver burst is flashy .....not classy!!! Gets old fast....I'll take the back one any day!!!

[@renealarcon3970]

Cooper's playing is a guitar lecture, for us guitar fans. That silver burst in S S S would be irresistible for me.

[@samblack5313]

Yep, silverburst in s s s would be so cool.

[@TimHoundDog]

Great playing. Half way through. Just seen an ultralux with ebony fret board flamed maple top. Must have. Loved the review.

[@cesalt2408]

The Technician at work. I’d love to see more from Cooper on a Floyd and scalloped neck. Wow!

[@vikingwooduk]

As a beginner who loves jazz, I bought an Ibanez LGB300 recently and I love it. Problem is I think I’ve made a bit of a mistake as it’s hard to play and the strings don’t bend very well for me (yet). I did a lot more research and came across your video. Ultra Luxe on its way to the UK in sunburst grey for me now thanks so much guys brilliant instructive video and very well presented. 2 nice guitars to learn on now.

[@dergrasfresser9648]

A few divebombs would have been great to see wether the floyd keeps the guitar in tune whilst being used excessivley

[@verruckterwissenschaftler]

It sounded like both men don't really know how to use that part of this instrument. They think its a squeal device.

[@orion681]

Yeah this guy can play some sick bluesy licks....but they should have had more of a shreddy guy in for this. He wasn't getting much out of that Floyd and used it more like a vintage trem lol

[@radio7353]

there's more than enough demos of this guitar, and yall know what a floyd rose does. I've been looking for clean demos and this is it, so maybe go find another video??

[@thomascraig74ify]

Black is the way I would go wish they would do all colors

[@billbodin6296]

I’d pay $200 more for a non-painted headstock…

[@prsfanatic74]

I was thinking the same thing

[@waywardsoul4918]

The vega trem puts the floydrose out if business

[@ronniewright6639]

Nice strat

[@savagewakolee2116]

Adam Jones and Eddie Van Halen had a baby Strat!!! Awesome!!! 💕 🎸 🎶

[@RodrigoCFD]

10:38 Looks like Cooper is having some fun with the Floyd, eh?

[@simonjajava3]

Nice Job (as usual)! Not completely sold on the Floyd Rose. Why didn’t they have the option of an ultra luxe “Huzzah” with the SS Frets and no Floyd Rose? Maybe next year?? Maybe the Ultra will transition to SS frets? Maybe??? When??? Next year??? Your thoughts? Also want to see the Tele Ultra Luxe “HAH” with the Floyd Rose and see how it compares to the very nice Pro II Deluxe “HAH” in terms of versatility. I guess the Ultra Luxe does have the possibility of splitting the Humbuckers, but haven’t been able to find that info on Fender’s website. Oh. I just saw it 😅. Anyway, want to see how it’s been implemented since it has less tone controls to push. 🤷🏻‍♂️ And I want to see Cooper play that thing anyway, ok? 😅

[@boazmarva7288]

Love it except that color. C’mon, how come the player series have better finishes??? Lol

[@il5075]

Alright, we already have chris' guitar lesson, but don't we need a cooper greenberg guitar lesson ? CUZ WE DO

[@rickmurakami8558]

Awesome

[@RNAMusic]

Need more Dime Squeals in the play test lol. Maybe next time! Still enjoyed the video y'all!

[@vlat74]

hello would bi good to see how much u cann pull up or down does it stay in tune thanx

[@1961boogie]

Nice

[@RyanHicks306]

Are these the same pickups as the Ultra series? I think they are? The Ultra HSS has hot Fender noiseless. I just tried an Ultra and to my ears these sound a bit different. Maybe the stainless steel frets? Besides the frets and Floyd Rose, if they are the same pickups what other advantages does this have over the Ultra?

[@Paul_Lenard_Ewing]

On the Fender site they do not seem to offer the Floyd model with a maple neck ????

[@AVNGD]

Im seriously looking into this silverburst But hows the sustain? On a maple neck vs rosewood?

[@AYOO88]

10:38 develish look

[@seryo2012]

is that a fender hot rod deluxe?

[@underwatersunlight3795]

How much better is the feel of the stainless steel frets compared to the „regular“ Ultra Strat? Is it worth getting this over the HSS Cobra Blue Ultra Strat?

[@asdasdae]

While they do feel a lot smoother, the main appeal of stainless steel frets is that they are insanely durable and will never ever wear. You will never need to get this guitar refretted or even set up with the frets once it’s done.

[@underwatersunlight3795]

@@asdasdae Thanks! I understand that. I‘m more interested in the feel, though. The same question also applies to the Augmented D neck-shape. I assume, that’s not a big difference to the Modern D neck-shape. But I could be wrong, of course.

[@peterjones4621]

Hey guys, I'm back, new account , don't ask. I just purchased the mystic black with the rosewood fingerboard, I'm not a great guitar player, I lack stick to it ness but I'm praying this guitar will hopefully change this. I get frustrated doing the same old learning methods and not progressing on. I'm determined to get better but I need some advice if you can please. I also have a Martin D28 Modern Deluxe and a Cort X700 duality along with an inexpensive Jackson bass which I really enjoy. Now for the age old question, can you give this old guy any advice on how to progress forward, how to step beyond my mediocre skills? Do I need to practice 10 hours a day until my fingers bleed? Can you give me any insight on becoming proficient a bit faster or a methodology to getting there faster? I'm no spring chicken to I'm motivated to progressing a bit faster. Help?

[@danabiondo9243]

Peter, I've been having The Same issue. 1 thing a female player told me was. Play your guitar like a Fav Lover. Treat it like, Appreciate it like Your Fav Lover. Then in your privacy start playing a Few chords or even just 1 Major or Minor Chord with Out a Pick. Just Start strumming from Your Heart. Take it Slow, give it A little practice Even 30 Min a Day. Then when it starts to Sound Good to You. Go with that. DONT Copy Any One. Be You!

Why did i get locking tuners silverberst Ultraluxe Floydrose

[@prahladkole4712]

Do you ship guitars in India?

[@texhaines9957]

Huzzah? Started in 1500s as a word used by sailors as 'hoist' or hooray. Used also by armies in Revolutionary War and War between the States. Don't think that would be my "huzzah" guitar. Nice demo Chris and Cooper.

[@charlesbranch4120]

Thanks, Tex. I hope you're feeling better. "Patriot Battles' is a recurring read for me as the Revolutionary War armies, after a long march. would be rested by the generals, which often gave the outnumbered (colonials) a chance to slip away without loss to fight in better circumstances. I liked the "HaSS" term... Big difference in germination times between the seeds of ebony and avocado: Ebony had to be planted within 24 hours, while avocado seeds could survive for 400 years. (They couldn't survive without the consumption, digestion, excretion, and fertilization as the seed dropped from the end of those herbivorous dinosaurs large enough to pass the seeds. Hass was the Oregon farmer who grafted rootstocks and began the avocado industry.

[@texhaines9957]

@@charlesbranch4120 that's neat. I like acoustic guitars best and haven't played an electric I couldn't put down.

[@garymajchrzak6793]

Waited 40 years for Fender to add something like this to production. SUGGESTION: Get rid of painted headstock and offer other color choices!

Blaaaa silver burst, nooo

[@markwarren325]

This guy that demo the ployd rose is not a good guy for this video he not the guy to push it he sounds like grapp.

[@joshbechaistron791]

Nice guitar, but the price is obnoxious. You can get guitars with many of these same features for around half the cost. I can get an ibanez prestige s series with better pickups, faster action, Floyd type bridge etc, for about a grand less. There's a reason more modern themed players skip these guitars...just doesn't make sense to pay this kind of premium because the headstock says fender, not to mention how late they are to these trends that are decades old already.

[@chengyang9487]

How about a roasted maple neck then I'll buy if not I buy a suhr instead.lol.

[@xsamitt]

Perhaps the worst vibrato ,whammy bar use, I've ever heard!!!

[@paulmera7677]

No good!

[@verruckterwissenschaftler]

What the is the fascination with coil tapping. It is about the single most waste of resource. That switch could be used for so much more, especially with a Floyd and Bucker setting right there. Fender decides to coil tap, WHAT? That single coil bridge Floyd tone though, WHAT are they thinking? It sure looks beautiful. Its a squeally, LOL men with Floyds.

[@lj8549]

Take a look at the 10-way blade switch.....$39.99...
