This one was the hardest, there seems to be a dead tie for first, and a REAL close second

Woulda had to say the acousticaster, but the telesitar blew it outta the water, incredible.

CJFearn · May 6th, 2010, 03:51 AM

I think they're all good enough to win all the prizes!

I think I have a headache!!!

The "most innovative" title is simply what the voters think is innovative in the realm of this contest. Not necessarily, something new and never seen before. So, it could be either -- something innovative out of the 20 guitars here OR innovative in the guitar world. Just whatever people think of as innovative.

All three categories are 100% subjective.

I'm disappointed that my taste in guitars is the same as everyone else's

.

I wish we couldn't see the poll results in real-time. While I think the votes are going to where they are largely deserved, I wonder how many of us (me included) are exhibiting the "lemming effect"?
