I can't help much other than Brian Setzer did a run of lessons for total guitar a couple of years back, so the videos are probably on YouTube.

I like Darrell Higham and he mixes up trad rockabilly approaches with other elements. There are a few lessons by him on YouTube.
Quite a lengthy free written lesson on truefire that might be worth a look as well.

Funnily enough I'm not really a Beck fan normally ... except for his rockabilly. The Beck live at Ronnie Scotts' on U tube is brilliant.
I've been dissecting Rev Horton Heat too ... jeez I swear Jim Heath has got a secret pair of extra left hand fingers he slips in to his playing from time to time.

My own guitar teaching background made me go for an arpeggio/country based approach ... and I've been trying to strip everything out to the barest minimum. It's tough ... as every fibre of my being want's to bust loose and play fast and flashy
I have the availability of a Fender twin for gigging ... but the bloody thing is sooooooo heavy ... any lighter recommendations?

I've been trying my Joyo 'American' pedal ... which does some good Fender impersonations ... coupled with my trusty Laney's clean channel turned well up. Makes quite a nice pseudo-Bassman sound ... and is relatively light.
One band I may well be working with does all original Psychobilly ... so I figure I have a bit more scope to chuck in the kitchen sink there Working on lots of minor arpeggios and trem 'doinging' .
As has been said ... I think the challenge is going to be working with a slap bass player ... never done that before in around 40 years of playing!

Now: Mighty Ninety P90 in the neck, Sun-T-Ron bridge (mega Duane Eddy twang)
And for my more overdriven moments ...
