Check out the Matt Garrison Signature from Fodera. That’s built for solo’ing.
33” scale, 26 frets, strung E to C, with drop D tuner.
You can also get a Fodera 6 Custom with tighter string spacing and 33” scale.

Other than the its playability functionally, I would think it should have a voice that sounds good soloed; a sonorous tone that is expressive and colourful. A fretless comes to mind first as it's the most expressive.
