I have an Epiphone Dot and have really been enjoying it. It can produce a wide variety of sounds--jazz, blues, rock--pretty much everything I need for my meager chops. I'd endorse it....plus, you can't beat it for the price.
Another thing to consider is Ibanez (http://www.ibanez.com/hollow/). They seem to offer a wide range of prices and features. I haven't tried one out myself, but I have a friend who bought on a while back as a second electric, mostly for jazz, and he loves it.
Good luck. The choices are overwhelming aren't they...?
