Cheapish Thinline Hollow Body?

What's Hot

I really want a Gibson Byrdland, but being as they're now around £7.5k, I wondered if anyone could point me at a cheaper (much!) thinline hollow body (no centre block) that would do the same thing? It needs to be a full hollow body, trapeze tailpiece affair.

A lot of the cheaper jazz guitars I've seen have thicker 3.5" bodies, whereas the Byrdland is the standard 2-5/8", same as a 335. It doesn't matter if the pickups need swapping or the bridge isn't right, I can sort that.

I've found these http://www.guitarfetish.com/XV-950-Hollowbody-GFS-Retrotrons-Flamed-Maple-Vintage-Sunburst_p_2341.html  in the US, but the shipping is stupid.

Any ideas?
