Is this a one off or do they still make these guitars?

I've never seen one for sale. It was probably a one off.

Ron,

It seems to be a one off. It featured as one of Joe's guitars of the week (week 7) in which he states that it is a "one and only". Details can be found here http://jbonamassa.com/joes-guitar-of-th … n-skylark/

I'm fascinated by them putting the Firebird X into production, but not the Skylark or the Bonabird...

I was in Sheldon Cooper mode. smile Same here, I'd buy the Skylard right now if I could.
