THe pro ii definitely has the better pickups imo. I used to think the noiseless sounded similar until I tried them out myself, and there definitely is something missing from them. If you have the budget, you could always get the ultra and swap pickups.
@@rexrathtar3893 I actually had an Ultra and had the sss version of this. The ultra was the best feeling guitar I ever played (best looking finish too) and I loved the split-coil humbucker. The other pickups lacked personality. The sss pro ii lacked a thickness I was looking for, but the pickups were great. I did think this model would be the way to go.
They are rather different. In a nutshell, I would say the pro II offers the more authentic Strat tone and has a more classic vibe (without getting vintage). The ultra is a modern guitar with more modern appointments but still a Strat. The sound is quite different. I have tried both and have an Ultra to fill in a very specific role. Still very stratty tones in a different way, I would also point out the neck profiles and feel are worlds apart. Worth trying both for yourself. Both excellent in their own ways.
Hey guys, how are you? Why did you take the video of the Fender Custom Shop LTD '64 Strat Journeyman with CC Hardware Target? Because? That is a work of art and I was watching it everyday.. =/ Post it back please!! thanks
Fantastic! Torn between this and the Ultra HSS. These pickups do sound amazing.

brilliant jamming!!!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻
Nice jam, great guitar!
Thank you for being able to play 😊
Sounds amazing. How does this compare to, say a custom shop or a high end Suhr?

Will be nicer if the pickguard is black. Considering getting this and changing the pickguard.
And the Input Jack, Bridge, Tuners and maybe also the trem bar is gold.
But would you still pick the Maple Fretboard?
