Talking Looking for a specific SHORT-SLEEVE but to ELBOW length tee

I'm looking for a tee that meets the following specifications, can you advise?

In the order of importance:

1. It should be a short-sleeve tee but longer than the usual short-sleeves. The lower it drops (around the elbow) the better.
2. Lightweight. I will consider heavier tees but prefer them to be soft and light.
3. Tighter neck size. I will consider a wider neck hole but prefer them to be as small as possible.
4. The body length should be as short as possible (not too long at least). This is the lowest importance of the 4 specifications however in deciding on the right shirt. Depending on the shirt, I will most likely place orders in the medium, large, and x-large sizes.

I have an American Apparel T-Shirt that says Standard American 100% Combed Cotton, the XL is longer than what I would like but has sleeves to the elbow. Would you happen to know which shirt that is?

Please let me know if you have any shirts that meet my preferences above.

Default Longer than usual Short-Sleeve (about elbow length) Tee

What brand/model number do you suggest for a t-shirt with longer than normal short-sleeves (coming down to almost the elbow)?

Raglan tshirts (baseball shirts) are usually 3/4 sleeve

Depends what type of tee. Off the top of my head. 3/4 sleeves we have used in the past. A.S. Tees more of a juniors look and Sanmar. I think the the Sanmar was a District Threads. For sports stuff not sure, but I think we may have used some Augusta. Am too lazy to to pull our products sold, it has been awhile since we have sold 3/4 to our teams. Plus, you probably wil get better advice from more specifically tee oriented forum members. (We sell quite a few tees but they are usally girls sports, tourney tees, general sports or cheer oriented).

Btw, we have had great service from vendors mentioned above.

'Standard American' is just the name of their men's line. The only 3/4 (or 1/2) length sleeve I see in their catalogue at the moment (other than this completely ridiculous... thing!) is this 50/50 contrast raglan:
Online Catalog - Wholesale Resources - American Apparel

...less than useful in this case. Unfortunately it's possible they've discontinued the style, as most clothing manufacturers (especially the fashion orientated ones) turn over styles regularly, keeping only a limited number of core styles.

I'm NOT looking for a 3/4 sleeve. I'm looking for a short-sleeve tee with sleeves a little longer than usual.
