So anything by a particular brand, and not on spec?  That helps loads, cheers!  :lol:

Umm........ last time I checked, they only made one semi hollow double cut, the H-535. I had one, very nice, very impressive quality.

Seems you should finish it quickly! :P

Gretsch's are no good - my pickups won't fit.

Those Kings look interesting....

I misread you had HB sized ones. Sorry.

In that case look for an electromatic version of the Malcolm Young called the G1910.



Also in natural.

I prefer the natural though if there giving them away any colour will do

It's not giving me GAS, but that is mighty cool. 8) 

So are we talking £1500 suddenly, or do Gretsch have a budget range?

That one is the budget range. This model is not made anymore so you have to look around. It has a bolt-on neck and it's not semi-hollow like a 'real' Jet but it is chambered AFAIK.

If you can find one, they usually go for $300 - $450.

haha, you have a problem... :lol:

i'd second the eggle which headtheball suggested (though i haven't tried the waves)- if you look hard enough, you can often find them NOS for £500 or so, even less if you go second-hand. you might have to hold out a while for the wraparound bridge, though.

absolutely no idea how one would sound with tv jones pickups, though, i've never tried them... :lol:
