Today, what are considered as great wedges? Like, maybe 10-20 years ago, Cleveland 588 was real popular among low handicap golfers. Is there anything today that enjoys the same?

Most of the major golf companies and several of the more boutique places make very good ones. Cleveland, Vokey, Ping and Callaway all have popular wedges.  Edel seems to have more of a custom fitting option.   They also all vary on the customizations like stamping and paint fills.   I don't think there is a consistent standard at this point.

I'd say any of the wedges made by the big equipment manufacturers like Callaway, Taylormade, Titleist, Ping, etc. are good options. I had Edel wedges for several years, and recently got fitted for some Cleveland wedges, and I have nothing negative to say about either brand.

Vokey wedges have their fan-boys, as do Cleveland, Callaway, Ping, et.al.  I really think any of the major players, which would include a couple of the boutique companies, such as Edel and Sub70, all make great wedges.  Everyone has different swings and needs, but there is a wedge out there for everyone!

How does one get fitted for wedges? I mean, what do they do, is it the same as with irons? Who offers fitting?

Wedge fitting involves checking launch angle, spin, decent rate and other parameters to optimize shaft choice and head grind. Not sure where you are in Louisiana, but Edel does have a fitter in NOLA. I love their wedges.
