Look into Gretsch, Ibanez, Epiphone...the Godin two pickup Kingpin is in your range...That used DeArmond is cool...and of course, there are Guilds, but their full depth hollowbodies tend to lean more jazz...
I'd avoid getting mired in semi-hollows. Fine guitars, but a totally different feel.

I’m not a Bigsby fan either but it’s not a deal-breaker. Semi-hollows are thinner and I like the big bodies of the full hollows. Thanks for the recommendations! Lots of the Ibanez stuff looks great but much of it is pretty cheap. I’ve been around guitars long enough to know that likely means lousy hardware and PUPs. I don’t like changing anything or customizing. I want to buy a guitar to play and enjoy from day one.
