A big rectangular body joining the neck at 15th fret*, lightened with internal chamber, f hole or no f hole, binding, LP style neck/headstock, humbuckers, Bigsby B7 style trem,..... pretty please?

Be very cool - it's very hard to get even the cheap gretsch version that was made in china.

*Or to simplify production, a standard neck style from one of the archtop kits? I know I'm fantasising here but could be doable?

Puhleeeeeeeeeeeeesssesesesss! I'll buy at least two. Promise.

yeah better as a scratchy i reckon, shape should be pretty easy to make

Crampstastic, might be worth buying a les Paul style neck and building the body around it . Miatbe checkout the necks here. http://www.pitbullguitars.com/bodies-and-necks/ .biying a neck will give you a starting point.
