No Whiskey listed. Does that mean the finish is being discontinued?

I would say that is the case. It's also not listed on the Custom Shop finishes. You might ask one of the Premier G&L dealers to see if they can
order it for you. https://glguitars.com/united-states-dealers .

Looks like Whiskey is still available: see: ASAT Classic Bluesboy in Whiskey over swamp ash .... Also, it is still listed on G&L's Finishes page.

Yeah, I ordered that guitar back in March. Like you said, I checked with BCR and they were able to place the order for me.
