Since this model is a 3/4 scale, does that mean the neck is also more narrow than, say a 330? Also, what does the 3/4 actually mean? Does it have a smaller number of frets or just a shorter body?

These are crude measurements made with a tailors tape, but they're close enough for rock and roll.
325v59 neck: 1 5/8" at nut, 2" at end, 15 1/4" long, 21 frets. 360/6 neck: 1 5/8" at nut, 2 1/4" at body, 18 7/8" long, 24 frets. So the neck is a little narrower; even though it's only a graduated 1/4" or so along it's entire length. Where one really feels the difference in this neck is in it's shorter length. More than 3 1/2"! So the frets are closer together. It took only a little while to get used to the feel of the 325 and I really like it alot. The body of the 325 is also a little smaller than most electric guitars. Overall it's a very comfortable guitar to play. There's a little more playing room on the neck of a 330 than on that of a 360 because there're no bindings on the 330. I hope you're enjoying your new guitar!
