While i understand your thinking behind this, I feel it right to tell you that a basic 5/8 full hollow will work good too!
That said, a hefty custom, like you mention, is also a very competent tool for the job.
Most any of the custom makers will be able to provide you with stellar shavers
I have a whole lot of them, from most of the makers out there, and would recommend most of them in a heartbeat.
If I were to advice on any, Charlie Lewis, Joe Chandler, Max Sprecher, Robert Williams, Buddel and Tim Zowada are well worth looking into. As is Bryan Brown, Bob Allman and Philip Dobson:)
