This was the idea behind my - now gone - custom model from Victor Baker : a 17" body with a 2.5" depth and a 25" scale and mine was a laminated construction, more along the lines of a long-scale ES-350T model that never existed ... A very playable and comfortable guitar that still packed a nice punch, despite the shallow body depth. I let it go because I eventually gravitated more and more towards my 16" Trenier lam-top (with a 2 3/4" depth) for gigging.
This Gibson is truly a sexy beast ...

Let's raise a cup of grog to you having a better experience with your white whale than Ahab did with his. Call me Ishmael.

Are you able to share what year it is?
And, more pics, please! :-)
If Gibson ever starts making archtops again, I'll probably order exactly this!
