Additional Comments:	You might be wondering why a single-pickup guitar would need a 3-way toggle switch. It basically allows you to have three preset tones with the use of the switch. In the bridge position the pickup is only connected to the volume control. This minimal circuitry provides more top-end sparkle than a Telecaster®. In the middle position the standard tone control circuit is activated and it functions just like any other tone control. In the neck position the tone control is disengaged, but a tone-shaping capacitor is added that rolls off a lot of the top end and some of the bottom. This scheme produces darker tone along with a slight volume loss.
