It was a lap steel and amp Gibson made in the late 50's. I saw an original add on e-bay and they came as a set or you could purchase them individually, lap steel, amp, and case. I think it only cost about $130 for the whole get up back then! This year for my 21st birthday my parents suprised me with a 1959 Korina Skylark lap steel. It's pretty cool. Maybe I'll get the amp this year lol.

Re: gibson skylark
I read where Joe was asked to try it out and give them input on what he thought about it, but I don't know or think they have any plans to release a new line of these instruments any time soon.
Re: gibson skylark
There is a guitar called the "skylark" I have the prototype, there are two more at gibson. I dont think they are going into production but it never hurts to ask they might build you one outright..
