Found this interesting early model slimline 2221. Looks like it is a keeper if given a little cleaning and tlc. Check it out if you like the slimline with bigsby

I used to have a guitar exactly like that, I believe it said Epiphone on the headstock. I've also seen them branded Ventura. It was decent, but not fantastic. It does not have a solid block down the center like a Gibson ES, but rather is fully hollow. Here are pictures of one with the Epi branding:

The spring looks a little long on the bigsby. I would like to have a roller bridge like that on my Hondo. Good luck Matthew.

Thank you so much for all of the info, guys!

I have a little bit of $$$ to play with right now and my band is going into the studio in April, so I would LOVE to have a new tay to play with!
