Semi hollow bodies are great and will work for rock, but if that isn't his main passion, I'd get him one of the ones you mentioned before since they'll be better suited. I love semi hollow bodied guitars, but you can play perfectly good jazz on a solid body guitar as long as your amp settings are good. I wouldn't compromise on what your son wants to play in favour of what a jazz band teacher wants him to play.
