Features
The key features of the 300 series are their thick rosewood fretboards, and their hollow maple bodies and necks. All of the guitars in the series feature two volume pots, two tone pots, one blend pot, and a toggle to switch between pickups. A set of one tone and one volume pot control each pickup, or each set of pickups, in the case of three pickup models. Three pickup models feature a different pickup selection system than their two-pickup brethren, with the upward position meaning the neck and middle pickups are selected, the middle position meaning all three are selected, and the downward position meaning only the bridge pickup is selected. All current production 300 series models feature singlecoil pickups (either modern Hi-Gains or reissue "Toaster Top."

Famous quotes containing the word features:
““It looks as if
Some pallid thing had squashed its features flat
And its eyes shut with overeagerness
To see what people found so interesting
In one another, and had gone to sleep
Of its own stupid lack of understanding,
Or broken its white neck of mushroom stuff
Short off, and died against the windowpane.””
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
“Art is the child of Nature; yes,
Her darling child, in whom we trace
The features of the mother’s face,
Her aspect and her attitude.”
—Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807–1882)
“All visible objects, man, are but as pasteboard masks. But in each event—in the living act, the undoubted deed—there, some unknown but still reasoning thing puts forth the mouldings of its features from behind the unreasoning mask. If man will strike, strike through the mask!”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
