Looking for guitars with fat tones that don’t require a fat wallet? Then look no further than these axes. First, in the vintage LP style, peruse the features of the 200 series. All of these guitars give you that classic single-cutaway access to the upper frets, as well as two pickups each, independent volume and tone controls for each pickup, and a sleek rosewood fingerboard for gliding from note to note. The neck and body are both fashioned out of mahogany, traditional for this style of guitar, so you’ll get that sweet, warm sound and excellent tonal balance. But let’s take a moment to examine their differences, shall we? One of them, styled in Cherry Sunburst, gives you a contoured flame maple top, as well as trapezoid inlays on the fingerboard, lending the guitar a distinctive and vintage look. If sunburst is your vibe, then this model has you covered. Now we come to the sparkly Gold Top models, one of which gives you humbucking pickups for a more classic rock sound, while the other offers P-90s for a more indie rock sound. Both of the Gold Top axes sport a glistening, shiny serpent inlay across the fingerboard. Whichever model you choose, these guitars will fit right in with classic rock, R&B, and even metal situations.
Onward now to the 300 series, which gives you an S-style guitar more suited to jangly rock music, surf sub-genres, funk, or any kind of music where a thinner and more pointed tone is desirable. Both of the axes in this line offer a maple neck, a basswood/alder body, three single coil pickups, a five-way pickup selector, a tremolo bridge for effecting slick vibratos, and classic dot inlays along the rosewood fingerboard. The only difference between these two is the color: one is styled in a sleek ivory finish, while the other gets a light powder blue.
