I please You to compare some measures of a 330:
The neck is nearly dead straight: A capo at the 1st fret and the pushed down string at the 24th fret leaves a space of about 0,2 - 0,3mm (if at all) at the 12th fret.
Quite easy question: How far are Your strings away from the 12th fret when they are "unchorded"?
PS: Additionally one more thing I noticed.
When You look at the lousy mobile pic there is something You can see - although it is diffuse (or maybe because) -some strange thing: behind the truss rod plate there is wood where it meets the neck at the high strings side. At the low strings' side there is no wood. Is that o.k.? When I opened the TRC there was a small piece of wood inside flying around.
For adjusting the neck the high side (G/B/E) needs some torque -feels right.
At the low side (E/A/D) I can loosen the bolt completely. The neck will not react with a bow. Is that right?!
String space measures of a good adjusted '2010 330?
