No, believe they are an inch or so narrower at the bottom, but you could look that up for verification.
I doubt that. But I do like the bridges, though not enough to change any on my Gibsons.Perhaps the metal alloy and engineering tolerance matches those made by Gibson in the '50s ?
Oh, fyi, that sub caldera lair your looking at ? it's a complete dump.. A 2.5 mile drop with a trailer home at the bottom, furnished with a flashlight, tin of beans and a box of matches, though Id think twice before striking a match down there.. Particularly after the beans.. Mark Zuckerberg and Bill Gates have it on timeshare. You could go thirds with them..
Then again do you really want to be seen around such people ? You've a reputation to think of..
Conclusion: I think Collings misjudged the market somewhat by offering an alternative 335-style semi-hollow electric with (1) the smaller 15" body; and, (2) a slightly longer 24 7/8" scale length. Who asked for that? I haven't seen any evidence the guitar community, and new guitar buyers, were demanding these slightly-off design specs.
