The 16th (or so) fret is where the 330's neck meets the body - its at the 19th (there or there abouts) on a 335. If you measure from the nut to where the heel meets the body, they are not the same length, hence the later versions are known a 'long necks' by vintage dealers. This is why the bridge is further back on a 330 - it's 3 frets' distance away from where it would be on a 335.
I also like the sound of them- in someone else's hands... ( esp if that someone else is Dave Grohl.)

I had no real desire for one until this thread started.
I've heard rumours that post flood gibsons have taken a step up in quality as well. Although I haven't tried any yet.
Oh my
I can live without the bigsby, but I'd hve to change to pickups to chrome ones. Black pic ups? What were they thinking?

I'm having the same debate with myself - of course the option is you could always add B5 and Vibramate, but it doesn't look quite right.

Yeah, I prefer the look of B7's on semis but I already had the B5/VB so thought I'd try it.
I'ver also got a "Custom Made" plaque ready for if I ever swap it for a B7 but I'm worried that I won't get on with the Bigsby being further back. I've only ever tried a B7 on a Casino and the arm felt slightly too far far back. Maybe I'd get used to it?
