I thought the inlays became wider, not longer?

Now that would be something a new 330 with 21 frets woosh! Id maybe consider even buying one.What well kept hands you have John......Wait hold on strike that theres a whole top guard scenario going to develope.

[Wurlitzer]

Yeah that would be something,I just don't think it will happen and I don't know why...The CEO even said once many moons ago he had no use for the extra frets.

Which direction are you looking at the guitar from?


I agree though, it's width, as they are known as FWI (full width inlays).

Well, my 360 has a scale length of 62.9 cm or 24 3/4'' and inlays that are not full width, but if some people like guitars with a scale width of that size to go with their full length inlays...

The ramp changes from time to time. I noticed that the 2010 330 model I have has a got slightly different shape than the actual ones.
