Sounds good Archie! I love Rich's tone too. It's one of my favorite recreations of the '60s jazz guitar sound. I wonder where he keeps the guitar tone control? He uses surprisingly light strings too...

Impressive playing and clearly an impressive guitar sound. But I suspect that JZ could make an Epiphone SG sound damn good. And the digital amplification also contributes to the great sound.
My take away here is this:
JZ is a top notch jazz guitarist (his playing shows what a healthy dose of natural talent combined with a LOT of dedicated practice achieves) and;
Gibson archtops make for an amazing jazz guitar sound.
But we already knew all that.
My other take away is that I need to stop watching videos like this. It makes me want an L-4CES and I already have enough damn guitars!

Someone once said a new set of strings will change the sound more in a guitar than the woods ever will (within reason and guitar style). I think that's the perfect way to look at it.
I’m not saying you're wrong; you have a great ear.
Food for thought.
