Ran across this (https://www.vintageguitar.com/30863/2018-readers-choice-awards/). They're taking nominations through September 16. Looking through the list of past inductees for Hall of Fame: Instrument and Hall of Fame: Innovator, I noticed some major omissions (if you know what I mean).
Wink, wink, knowing look...
;)
I nominated Ron, Bear, and Semie Moseley in the "Innovator" category.
Bill, tgo
I went with Bear, Ron, Rick, the Larson Bros, John D'Angelico, Epi Stathopoulo, and Bozo Padonuvac.
