Topic: Joe's Gibson Skylark Slide guitar

Does anyone know if he has used it any other times other than the Guitar Center Joe Bonamassa Slide video?

I really like how it looks and its such a odd little guitar....I really want to know more.

Last time I saw him live was in 2008 and during Slo Gin he started the song out with a Cherry burst Gibson Les Paul and during the piano break switched it out to play the outro solo slide guitar on it.  It was beautiful.

Any vid perchance?

Such a beautiful guitar....he should bring it out more often......unless Gibson took it back.

From NAMM 2011, Wildwoodguitar's pics had one of a Skylark as well.

I've got pictures of it somewhere but haven't found them yet.  I would try youtube look for slo gin 2008 live or something and you should find it.

Will do! Thanks for the tip....I wish Joe would input his experience with it.

Re: Joe's Gibson Skylark Slide guitar

Also, where was it that you saw him live? It might help to refine the search...

I'll link any vids here....so in the future there will be more info about this guitar and his use of it.

Re: Joe's Gibson Skylark Slide guitar

I could be losing my mind, but I'm pretty sure I saw it used for the outro on "One of These Days" played live somewhere around 2008?  Dunno, senility is setting in :-(

You know that might be the song I'm thinking of.  I saw him at Charlotte NC Neiborhood Theater.
