Every day he does something special. Love the wah wah on the solo. He knows an encyclopedia of lyrics and I’ve never heard a hint of a slip up…oh and that goes for guitar licks/chords too.
That guitar was made by his grandfather around 1962. He carved the neck and body himself out of an old I think it was a cedar table. When Boomer found it it was stripped of the original homemade pickups and some of the hardware. The only thing on the guitar that wasn’t homemade was the fretboard. He refurbished it and added custom pickups.
I am a big billy Strings fan. And after watching his videos playing all genres of music, he still amazes me. He can imitate just about any voice and any riff out there and then he throws his own stuff in there and boom!!
Stevie's among my top favorite. I've played guitar for 25 years, I'm mediocre on a good day, but I have watched a lot of great players closely trying to learn. I don't think I've ever seen anyone light an acoustic guitar up like Billy. Flawless, lightning fast, never misses. Phenom. I could practice 8 hours a day for the next thousand years and never come close. You gotta be born with something. Stevie was. Billy was. A handful of others.
Who the hell is this kid, first time I've seen or heard of him, I've been playing guitar for around 10 years now, I'm 51yo,. Oh yaw excuse me for a min I'll be back I'm going to throw my guitar as far as I can off the third floor balcony now thanks bill, 😠
I'm 65yrs old And anyone who is 27yrs old is a kid... And with the talent on display for his age is phenomenal and mind blowing truly appreciated
Blows me away every time I hear him play
He truly lives up to his stage name
Absolutely 🎤💚🎶🎸🎵🪕🎵✴️💚
I'm 60
As far as I'm concerned Billy is already the greatest living American musician.
Just when you think all the greats are gone and Shazam another is born.

Billy has blown my mind in a different way everyday since I found out about him.
He never ceases to amaze me.
You ain't the only one !
Me too every time I hear this man’s music it makes me enjoy and appreciate music even more

Billy sure does justice to that beautiful gift....
He also did it while in jail. 🤟
@@austinseymour1769 OMGOSH. You talking about his Dad being in jail or Billy and for what reason?

I wonder how it would feel to be this good.....at anything!
Purdy dam good I'm bettin👍!!

One of them rare talents born to play music
That guitar is a family heirloom with a pretty cool history that's worth reading about.
Billy Strings just keeps amazing crossing all barriers... Killing out the park 👀💚 Billy Strings and the Band of Strings 🎶🎸🎤🎵🎤🎸🕺✴️🎤🎵🪕🍀
Chuck Berry is looking down from heaven and he definitely approves.
He makes it look effortless.
He can play that guitar like ringin a bell
We breath oxygen, he breaths music
Thanks, TH-cam, for recommending this to me
Check out some of his bluegrass or acoustic stuff. Dude is a Monster on an acoustic.
Once in a while the AI algorithm F's U and comes through. Go figger?
He reminds he so much of Stevie Ray Vaughan. Voice, guitar playing, everything.
Obviously you haven’t seen Stevie play
That’s what I thought. Stevie ray reincarnated
@@mrgardner80 although a complete different style Billy is one the best flat pickers out there, check out some of his stuff.
I love Billy, but in no way is his voice as soulful and matured as Stevie.

What! Billy on electric to do rock and it’s great as usual
This kid! This kid is going places! I've been privileged to watch so far and I can't wait to see what's next. Gotta love the power of music!✌️
He's already pretty big, not in the rock or blues world though. His main genre of music is blue grass, I suggest you check it out. He's a treat.

This isn’t even Billy’s final form...

Homemade by his grandmother.

Still Smokin!
Oh he is FEELIN IT...
Now kiddos that's the way Johnny B Goode supposed to be played .
Doing a little of Jimi Plays Berkeley version.
I know you shouldn't make comparisons but damn that kid takes me back to early Gary Moore, in the way he plays that axe.
There is nothing Billy can't play or sing
An electric guitar looks good on Billy. He reminds me of Stevie Ray Vaughan. I’d love to hear his versions of “Pride and Joy” or “Texas Flood”
Muito bom...top

😯👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🤘😝
Where is the resto f this show? That was kickin'.
Who the hell is this kid, first time I've seen or heard of him, I've been playing guitar for around 10 years now, I'm 51yo,. Oh yaw excuse me for a min I'll be back I'm going to throw my guitar as far as I can off the third floor balcony now thanks bill, 😠
Check out his song called Dust In A Baggie
@@JustSomeGuyOk I did,,. And the crazy thing is all the guitars in the damn county are all of a sudden hiding from me now, but I won't give up,.
One of the best bluegrass pickers out there currently.
Sounds a lot like Marty McFly!
That was a great scene...whoever thought that one up deserves some $$$
Kind of reminds me of Angus
Killer. The kind of guitarist that makes you wanna quit playin yours.
NEVER QUIT 😁! Listen 👂! and then pick up SHREDDER 🎸 AND do the same 😎!!
Billly does Chuck!
does Chuck well!
Has Eric Clapton met Billy Strings yet?
Young Stevie ray vaughan....
Sounds like the Hendrix version...in a good way
Certainly...
Anyone know what guitar this is?
"Prison Guitar" our Grandpa made it while in prison. When it was passed on to Bill he completed the project.
Need more electric guitars in your life man, grandpas guitars can only take ya so far, I’m already bored with the picking shit
Billy strings needs to learn Transcendental Meditation, TM.org
