It seems your heart is set on Gibson, but you might want to consider an archtop with a floating pickup. There's a big difference in acoustic volume. Something like a Heritage Johnny Smith might set your wallet aflame (but it'll be cheaper than the Gibson)

Just some things to consider.
Thanks. I am going to play Jazz plugged in with it. But you know every now and then you get into a situation where there is the patio and the expectation of nice open chords
