Absent the mixup I was anxious to ask you about the 339's neck. The non-Studios definitely have the choice between some kind of vintage 50s profile and the 60/30, which is a slightly thicker 60s slimfast, or something. I can't pin down what neck profile is on the studio.

While waiting for a Gibson 339, I bought a cheap epi version and it's got a Slimtaper "D" that I find a little thick compared to my LP and Gibson 390 (390 is Taylor-slim).

I also wanted to know why some 330 Studios have 2 vols and tones, while others are limited to 1 each. I have a LP studio ('93) and the only differences back then were binding and bling.

While I'm a fan of the smaller body 339/390, I'm sure you'll love the 335 - it's most peoples' keeper.
