I actually heard Adam Rogers on an archtop once, when he took one out of my hands bc he didn't think my rhythm was right on Evidence.

Some people appear to not have read the thread with comprehension. Anyone who is taking the title and posts seriously has serious comprehension problems, and needs to actually read, not just quickly scan. You're missing the point entirely.

In my defense I almost never used them for jazz gigs, but for stand-up rock/pop gigs a Gibson ES-355 model has been my most-used type of guitar from '62-2002. At that time I decided that they were getting too big and heavy for me and switched to these (not the big one in the middle):
I still use them for non-jazz gigs, the Johhny A. more than the CS-356 because I prefer the long scale length.
I prefer this style of guitar to solidbodies because, to me, they feel better to play. There some resonance and tactile feedback that's lacking in a solid guitar. OTOH, they can be played way louder than an L-5 without acoustic feedback.

If they're too heavy, you can save some weight by removing the Bigsbys.

So Danny, how do the smaller bodied guitars compare to the larger ones, in tone, resonance and feel? They are very popular these days.
