For my playing, I'd probably set up a Duane Eddy like yours....probably would even replace the Bigsby......17" thinner bodies have an appeal to me, but there are not many to choose from. I love the DeArmonds on my '61 Starfire.
BTW......Old Epi's' and oldest Guilds are my cuppa tea too.
I love the Howard in your collection. Something about the Masterbilt Era draws me in.
