The Rickenbacker Model 330 is your chance to take a page from rock 'n' roll's playbook. These iconic guitars, with their distinctive looks and jangly tones, have found their way into the hands of everyone from The Who to R.E.M., Jimmy Page to Tom Petty, The Smiths to Radiohead. Today's 330 features the hotter Hi-gain pickups and a 21-fret fingerboard for a spankier sound and hotter overdrive characteristics, with the classic lightweight semi-acoustic body, cat's eye soundhole, and "R" trapeze tailpiece back in full effect.

Everything but the fingerboard is built from high-grade maple. Maple's density is partly responsible for the 330's famous sustain and top-end jangle and shimmer, and it's a very stable wood that helps maintain the structural integrity of the neck. The thick rosewood fingerboard adds warmth and harmonic richness to this otherwise bright instrument, and traditional dot inlays complete the classic 330 look.

The heart and soul of every Rickenbacker is the proprietary electronics. Here you get a pair of Hi-gain single-coils that deliver the stringiness of other single-coils along with an aggressive cut that has driven countless rhythm and lead tracks through the decades. A 3-way toggle and a 5-knob layout — two volumes, two tones, and the famous "blend" knob — open up a wide range of colorations and output levels, while Schaller tuners keep things stage rugged and studio dependable. Finished in high-gloss Jetglo and shipped in a hardshell case.
