The ES-330, Lennon Casino and the Elite/Elitist Casino's all have a 1/2" Spruce Expansion plate under the top. This is for mounting the ABR-1 & pickups. I don't think the Chinese or Korean Casino's have this plate. You should be able to mount humbuckings on a Casino w/o and issues (other than a couple of holes for the P-90 covers on each side. I have a friend who places a 1.25" dowel between the top & back and after the glue dries he drills holes for the Gibson bushings and mounts a Stoptail in place of the trapeze and drops in a set of humbuckings. Best of both the 335 & 330!
