Other options would be a Heritage 575 (solid top version of a 175!), or possibly even an early 70’s ES150D.
I used to own an 1969 ES150D….it is a 3 inch deep, fully hollow 335 style guitar. From the front it looks like a 335, but once you see how deep it is, you realize that it is a very different guitar. They are a bit brighter than a 335, but sound very good, and are reasonably priced compared to 335’s, 330’s, and 175’s of the same era. Some guy’s love them, some don’t.
