I modified my design with a 2-degree neck angle, a 27” scale, a taller bridge, and an arch-top style tailpiece. The neck angle helped get a taller bridge, which gave you more of an angle into the tailpiece, which gets more energy into the top. This helped with getting more punch and volume out of the guitar.
