Don't forget the Everly Brothers and Eddie Cochran, old chap!
British!
You didn't specify that, so I had to say it!
Seriously folks...I'll be interested to read the article, hope it's written by someone who knows what they are talking about though..
I could probably write a bit of a treatise meself...I'm not much good on the intricacies of Hank's sound and echo unit/vibrato arm details etc but I'm a Bruce fan and have always watched and listened carefully to his work (Although I can and do play lead on a number of Shads tunes, I've 'been' Bruce in a few Shads tribute bands)..in that regard, one thing that I did do was check every Shads number we were going to play with the records to ascertain which numbers Bruce played on acoustic and which ones where he used an electric guitar, then I used both types of guitar at the show.
