===Pickups===
Modern 330s are equipped with Rickenbacker's Hi-Gain [[single-coil]] [[Pickup (music technology)|pickups]]. Formerly, the model came equipped with Rickenbacker's Toaster pickups. The Hi-Gains have noticeably higher output than the Toasters, though this has resulted in the character of the sound in current models being slightly different from that of the older, pre-1970s models. The sound of the old Toaster pickups has been associated with such musical acts as [[the Byrds]] and [[the Beatles]], while the newer Hi-Gain pickups are more representative of the sound of groups such as [[the Smiths]] and [[R.E.M.]]
