    Gibbons remains the most underrated guitar player in rock and blues. The average listener thinks, "he's good." But great guitar players know that he is absolutely one of the GOATs. His playing is so deceptive due to its simplicity. But he was a man born with RHYTHM and SOUL. And you can hear it throughout all his music. And his riffs and licks are straight JAMMIN. I hope Gibbons knows just how great he was and is and will always be. A true guitar god and legend. Thank you for enriching our lives with your music.

    I have a huge amount of respect for Billy G and ZZ Top. I went to a concert in Clearlake CA about 10 years ago. It was pouring rain, cold and windy. Billy came out and said if you guys gotta be in it we're playing in it. They played straight through with no breaks. It was the best sounding guitar overdrive I've ever heard.

      I was at that concert,was my 1st & only time at that venue & 1st time to see ZZ Top. They were wearing all white & the equipment was white. They played almost every single song you'd want them to play. Me & my friends had on our thick jackets & perfectly content in the rain. It some how made it that much more sweeter & epic to see them in pouring rain.

    All I could do was smile when I watched this video. I smiled even more when I heard Billy play his SG Les Paul and Sammy sang along with him. 👍👍👍👍👍

    Sammy Hagar is a class act lol he was in South Lake Tahoe the week of September 2nd back in like 2012 when I turned 18. We were checking out of our house we rented and I held the door
    open for this blonde haired dude with a tequila tattoo on his arm I can’t remember the brand but i told him “nice tattoo” to which he looked at me and smiled and said “thank you it happens to be my favorite, have a great weekend.” I get back in the car with my parents and my dad (who literally never speaks) turns around to me and goes “you don’t know who that was so do you” I said no and he just laughed. Didn’t connect the dots until we drive down by the hard rock casino and saw pictures of him and was baffled.

    I've heard about the way Billy plays these "cheater chords" and inversions now I've seen it. No wasted movements. Full sound w/ less strings. Very awesome! Nobody sounds like this cat! The feel and groove is unmistakable. Love the ordinary Orange practice amp too!

      He's playing a Carr Raleigh amp. Pretty sure the Orange Crush is for the tech.

    2 car guys. I saw Sammy open for ZZ right before Sammy joined Van Halen. One of the most fun concerts ever. Best wishes for both these guys. Billy G is a big influence on my playing.
