johnbiffa Posted February 5, 2014 Posted February 5, 2014 Si I believe this is one of the rarer "long neck" CS 330's, if I didn't have the identical guitar in my collection this would be flying north today !!!!! Good luck with the sale John
bassbiscuits Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 That is simply beautiful. Gibsons + P90s = tone heaven.

johnbiffa Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 This has the same neck as an ES 335, with standard ES330's joining the body at the 17th fret. These guitars are much lighter than a 335 due to not having a solid block running down the centre of the body. Si is almost giving this away !!!! Have a bump on me........do I need 2?

[/quote] So, it's Gibson version of Epiphone Casino (or vice versa). But are you saying scale length is longer?
KK Jale Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 ^Scale length on a "long neck" 330 is regular Gibson - the change is the point at which the neck joins the body (or how high up the body the bridge is, if you prefer). So the "long necks" have much improved upper fret access. I've got an old 330 - my lifetime guitar - I bet this one is a cracker!
hoiho Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 Scale length is the same, but the neck joins the body at a higher fret, the 19th, rather than the 16th - the bridge is moved to allow for this.
EssentialTension Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 OK, I get what you are saying now.
johnbiffa Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 I would recommend anyone to buy this guitar, mine is a keeper !!!!!

Bassnut62 Posted February 21, 2014 Posted February 21, 2014 damn that is cool i would love this with it's P90s; but Mrs Bassnut would hit the roof if I brought home yet another guitar! Seems shoes and handbags don't count in trying to balance these things out either.......
