It won't make any significant difference. The EBow simply creates a force field around the magnet, so any magnetic pickup will work just fine. As for hollowbodies + EBow, the only person I can think of is Ed O'Brien (Radiohead) who plays an ES-335 sometimes (extensively on In Rainbows,) and it sounds just fine. It's a great investment; and I have yet to run out of sounds to create. Definitely worth the $100.
