Note that the body of the ES330 was completely hollow as opposed to that of the ES335 which had a solid block of maple running through the middle of it. The ES330T originally was manufactured with one P90 pickup and the neck joining the body at the 16th fret. However the ES330TD was released in two variants in which the first had two P90 pickups with the neck join on the 16th fret and then the last variant was released with two P90 pickups with the neck joining the body on the 19th fret.
