I couldn’t imagine how he felt to see his sons name in the guitar. One proud dad right there. 👍
He didnt name his kid strings
This father son relationship touches my heart. The world needs these two right now.
And then some. My life has been much different. Respect and love Billy and Terry!
Terry, you have accomplished something incredible!
Beautiful moment!
Too bad in america theyvare trying to tear that relqtionship apart
And they aren't related by blood. But you wouldn't know it.
Terry is his stepdad, but the relationship is crazy close.
This man is legendary in my book and Billy ain’t to shabby himself lol . Seriously though, Billy’s talent is obvious when you hear him play and it looks like he’s a great son and a genuine good person as well. Thanks to Papa Strings for his hand in raising him that way .
Papa strings, now that's got to be his stage name from now on, what a fabulous father and son, the world needs more Billy and Papa Strings !
Agreed but we shouldn't forget Mama Strings (Debra Apostol) as well. She's an incredible woman and mother. What a family! 👪 💖
You think they're cool, I hang out with his cousin Black Sheep Strings, talk about a born rebel
Love it. This man raised a good boy and I love how he's always mindful and grateful about that.
This is so much better than the bottle of cologne I gave my dad last Christmas.
Lmao don't feel bad I think his dad woulda took that guitar over a pick up truck this should go down as present of the year or some shit 😂
It's the thought that counts.
Well if your dad loved the present it realy doesnt matter ... its not alway about what you give as a gift!
Irving Velasquez $10k+ likely lol
Ron Ryan that guitar> ANY pickup truck...
People are going to be talking about Billy strings for generations to come! These guitars could be worth a fortune one day! It don’t get much better than Billy strings🤘🏽
Which factory and where were they built?
harris bolton they’re pretty pricey already!!

"Could be worth a fortune"? I think you meant to say they WILL be- that's a pretty sure bet if you ask me. Especially the #1 he gave to his dad. It'll be priceless in about 40 or 50 years for sure.
I feel like an old fool. I got choked up. Dad, you raised a good man, and Billy... I’ll always take my hat off to you. Much respect for both. God bless you.
Knowing the story of the Martin and the fact that his dad was willing to sacrifice something so dear to him to keep his family safe and warm makes moments like this even sweeter.
Also knowing the nearly impossible coincidences and circumstances that brought the Martin home and what Billy was willing to do to get it back... There is just no way that these two souls haven’t met and loved one another before.
The story of love and sacrifice and a young man making his father proud.
Whas it's the story??
@Larry Willard ahh so he bought his dads old guitar back that he sold for food?? That's awesome :) then this is him giving him a brand new one. Thx mate I got the drift of it!
Reminds me a bit of "keep the wolves away" by uncle lucius
Do you have a link of Billy or his dad telling the story?
I'm glad the first one was given to him. This is beautiful!
The whole thing was so wholesome, but I think what I liked most was the way Billy looks at his dad when his dad isn't watching. You can literally see the love and admiration he has for this man, and it makes my heart full to see the mutual respect these two have for each other.
What father is not proud of his son? What son is not proud of dear old dad?
Every time I see you and Terry together I think about how many boys in this country do not have a meaningful relationship with a father figure and how much of a disadvantage that is.
God bless Terry and fathers all over, they are needed!!
Got his Martin back and now this?!
This is so heartwarming 🙏❤️🔥
Ya, pretty incredible that Billy found the Martin he had to sell. Now the first of Thompson's Billy Strings signature series is going to him as well.
What?? Billy found his dad's old Martin,,,, AND gave him the #1 of 33 custom Billy Strings PT dreads????
I hate to say it but I think the PT sounds better!!!
I'm 52yo and finally starting to expand my musical tastes. Never cared for bluegrass or whatever it is you do....until I heard you play and sing.
Now when I pick up one of my guitars....its like being born again...everything is fresh,new and exciting.
Ty.
And thanks for sharing this wonderful moment. God n Jesus are awesome!!!
When you find a great artist you appreciate their music, when you see someone play with passion you connect with their connection to their passion. When you connect with their personal feelings you realize why and the aforementioned become possible.
So now you have been promoted to one of the inspirational motivators in my life, I’m a Brit and I am learning bluegrass with passion, inspired and motivated by you. The same way your dad did for you.
Thanks man.
You are an amazing guitar player, but an even better son. As a dad to three boys there is nothing better than knowing that your son loves and appreciates you - you showed your dad how much he means to you and that was awesome.
The younger generation needs to see the Love & Respect this young son has for his aging Senior Citizen Father. Nowadays we need that respect for our Elders and for each other. Let's bring back that respect and love again now to America.
My pops passed a few years back. He bought me an American Strat 50th Annv. Edition back when I was 16. It was the greatest gift of my life. How I would of liked to return the favor now that I'm older. What a special moment to share with your father.
In the last few weeks it's been a pleasure to see the personal side of Billy. Not only a great musician but a great person too.
Billy you rock dude we truly see that you love your dad
What a sweet moment, and Dad’s reaction is heartfelt and priceless. Between that and reclaiming his Dad’s old Martin years ago he wont need another one. How cool that father and son share the gift of music together!
That's a beautiful gift for your dad Billy. Nice job.
How proud would you be if your son was successful enough to not only make it to the top of his music genre but also get a high end signature model guitar and then give the first one to you. Amazing!!!!!!’ Class act.
A boy who was raised to be a good man...Good on you Billy👍
You are a hell of a man who knows what family means...
Much love from Huntington WV thanks
Gary Laney make that 2 from Huntington, WV!😂
@@danno1800 much love brother and that's what I'm talking about do you have a Facebook account?? If so look me up MUCH LOVE brother
A big shout out to y'all in West By God Virginia!
that boy already made his father immensely proud
What father wouldn't want a son like that? And what son wouldn't want a father like that? What a beautiful story of love, care, esteem and respect. I already found the story of the Martin guitar very touching. And now this beautiful story of love, care, esteem and respect.
It is very refreshing to see some younger people doing wonderful and respectful things for their parents. The very people that have made them what they are. I am one of those old guys. I have followed Billy since the beginning. Have always been very impressed with the ability. I am now impressed with the man. Way to go Billy!! Congratulations Terry. You did a great job!!
I've been following him now for a little while. It was like 4PM earlier today when it all began with some stoned dude sucking on an unlit cigarette standing by this clean cut kid who started singin' about some 'dust in a bag'!
To be fair, most kids his age in America have TERRIBLE parents who did nothing positive for them in their life.
@@grubalaboocreosote4774 Most? No. Too many? Probably.
Terry gets a one-of-a-kind guitar and the first tune he picks is Deep River Blues- You know where his heart is.
Bless yall
36 dislikes....really. It's a beautiful thing to see the bond between a father & son. Beautiful moment....thanks for sharing!
I'm not crying, you are crying. My heart is smiling 💙
watch it a second time, there are just as many feels.
Tammy,
Just some mist in the Air! Sniffle.
Just a few tear, but they were manly tears
Lol me too, what a bunch of cry babies lol.
My Favorite Billy Strings videos are the ones of him playing with his Pops. What a great bond to have between any parent and child.
Now that was well deserved, how proud his father must be !
Any boy can be a dad it takes a man to be a father. Your dad is one of kind, thank you for sharing this priceless moment
Your dad is a Rock Star!
Dad gave Billy the gift of music and Billy has run with it. Billy says thank you dad.
What a gift, and a legacy. Remember, there wouldn’t be a Billy Strings without a Daddy Strings!
"It already feels like a darlin." 1:35 lol. I instantly like that man. Good deal, golden memory Billy Strings.
If you’re lucky enough to give your father a guitar, much less one of your own signature models, it is absolutely amazing. This one had me choked up. Jamming with your dad is a treat for all of us! Thank you for sharing this moment with all of us!
Cherish that beautiful relationship with your father.... life don't get better than that... make the most of it while you can ...
Thank you! Billy, its great to see your love and respect for your “Pop”. I miss my Dad everyday. God bless you brother.
Always good to view real guitar players
Good job billy. That look on your father's face when he saw it was the first one was everything. He'll never forget that.
I was sitting outside by the fire listening to the Home Album. I just cried and cried. The music was so beautiful and cut straight to my heart. I’m a cryer though. I cry at church. I cry at weddings I cry at births and deaths and I cry over beautiful music. I didn’t cry over this video though. I got a big smile on my face when Daddy was smiling. Thank you Billy for the smiles and for the tears
Well done young man, well done. Without family, the world is a cold cold place.
I heard the story of when you chased down your Dads guitar and bought it back, then to watch this brought tears to my eyes. Not sure which is the coolest, but they are both cool in my book. My Son and I play guitar together, nothing like you two, so I guess its why it hits home. Billy you are a great Son in my book and one hell of a player. Bring the Family string up in the Northeast so that me and my boy come watch you two.
My favorite videos are of you and your Dad playing together.
This is wonderful. Thank you Daddy Strings for raising this boy right. The world is a better place with you folks in it.
Nice to see father and son bonding for life with Music , and common interests . Music is good for the soul ,and feel as if God gifted music to us.🙏
How awesome to have a Father like that!.....and a Son. Two super classy dudes right there.
I would love to see a Billy Strings/Terry Barber album released. Someone needs to keep Doc's style alive and there are none better than these two!
Amen to that..I only heard of doc a year ago..we need the old sounds the old guys and old souls...love to you both
I still have my dads guitar he had when he was a kid. An old Franciscan Classical. He passed away 2 years ago. I'm 45 years old.
I'm 45 and never known who my father was, seeing Billy gift his father a new guitar was magical, most stars leave their family and friends by the wayside, but that relationship right there is pretty special. I think Billy idolised his Dad growing up, and learnt the guitar as a way of communicating with him, music is a language that everybody can talk.
I'm an awful teacher. I've been trying to teach my son to play, but I think I can be a little mean. I don't remember how long it took me to actually be able to contort my fingers into a G chord, but I lose patients when my son can't get it immediately. I hope I'm not scaring him off of everything I love because he isnt proficient immediately. Step one is identifing the problem, so at least I have that going for me.
Good job Billy.... you'll never get these days again like he was with you as a baby.... you only get one Mom and Dad...
This young obviously loves his dad very much. What a tribute.
Beautiful. Dad is proud of his boy
As well as being one of the best guitarists in the world Billy seems to be one of the best guys.
Do a tour Ireland Billy
Billy, you are a very talented musician and I am sure your dad would agree that a grateful son also. I hope to see you live one day.
Billy your a good soul, that loves an honor's your Dad. ❤
Billy was never a spoilt brat, grew up in a poor family, his dad had to sell his guitar to put food on the table, & Billy bought it back years later to return it to his dad. (Its here on YT.) Just look how Billy's career has gone stellar.
It is so nice to see a son be so good to his Dad. You're a good man Billy. Not everyone has that type of character. Your Dad raised you right. Blessings to you both.
My heart. 💝Thank you Billy, you are so sweet a guy. oh my goodness.ty
I'm in tears, what a wonderful gesture, love between father and son. I miss my dad so much watching this.
My dad passed when I was 19 and I can assure you that giving gifts to important people stay with you longer than receiving them. This is nice.
I needed a good cry today... thanks Billy n Terry, that was beautiful in every way, shape and form 👏 🥰
I was raised in a small town in Southeast Kansas by my grandparents. I grew up playing bluegrass with my grandpa my entire life. He frequently played in the Walnut Valley festival in Winfield when he was younger and we had always talked about doing it together, but unfortunately, I never got the honor. I'll never forget when I was 16, right before he passed away, I saved up and bought this beautiful Martin D1 and gave it to him. This reminded me of that. Hell, your dad and my grandpa even kinda look similar. Thanks for reminding me of exactly how that felt man, and making my heart swell.
For all you dads out there watching this right now, its ok to be crying
Billy your amazing
You're never to old (or young) to show gratitude. Wonderful gift Billy!
I'm a Rock n Roll guy but Billy has become my new guitar hero. I was just shock it took me this long to discover his music but I glad I did. Not only is he a great guitar player but also a great Son. God Bless
I loved how they played together... his dad laying down a song and Billie, like a little kid, skipping down the road over it with his own sound... so good.
Billy takes good care of the old man..and he deserves it. Hell yes guys hell yes.
Billy really loves his dad so inspiring.
when life is good... share it with Dear 'Ol Dad. I like this kid more all the time.
So awesome to see him be able to do that.. Poppa is the reason Billy can play... I almost cried...lol...
Makes me wanna cry. I love these moments.
I really feel privileged to have seen this moment the day after it happened. I've been playing for nearly 70 years but Billy has taught me there's a whole new world of playing out there and I love watching it.
What a beautiful thing to do. Reward the man who taught you in your early days....Well done, Billy!
Such a touching moment between Father & son. A bond that is a joy to see.
Billy is so lucky to have his mom choose such an amazing man to be his step father. You can tell just how much they love each other.
Terry Barber, you raised a good son. Billy Strings, I respect and admire you.
Thank You Both,
Ted Furlo
Seeing a close father and son bond like that is a bitter sweet experience for me because I grew up without my dad after he walked out on me at 10 months old, but I don't begrudge what Billy and his dad have together because it's beautiful beyond words, something I've yearned for all of my life and even now I have a son of my own. I've found it somewhat cathartic (healing) to give my boy what I never had myself.
Man knows the value of treasuring his dad!!! Love goes a long way!!❤️❤️
One very proud papa right there....kudos to you Billy! A pretty special moment, thanks for sharing it.
Beautiful moment. I'd give my pops the world if I could. Well done, Billy
Beautiful moment between two genuine men.
Sold his guitar to feed his family, Billy got him that one back and then this priceless beauty to boot. Can't write this stuff, can only live it.
That is a wonderful gift to your Dad. I know he appreciates it. God Bless you both.
If i had one Hug from my pops like that it would mean the world! Beautiful moment some get to play catch with there pops you get to jam with him! Much love many blessings! Do your thang!
That had to feel good.
Nice move boy, nice move.
Definitely. Cheers
This is a beautiful father/son relationship.
Great Son, Great Dad, Great Guitar...your awesome dude!
Billy you are a blessed man.
I wonder how many understand 33. First time listener tonite. Amazing talent. Stay humble. Stay free. Much Love
It's lovely to see a real father /son relationship with so much respect for each other. I never had that and I wish I had.
My dad taught me how to play guitar. If only I could have thanked him in this way.
Way to go Billy. Great gift for the old man. Cheers brothers
Billy, you’re a class act! Just like your Dad, I’m guessing. Congrats on the guitars.
This country needs more of this.
There is NOTHING better than music to bond a Father & Son FOREVER!!! 🎸🎶🎶🎶
I have not, for a very long time found a artist like Billy Strings. I cannot get enough of his videos and guitar playing and singing.
That's pretty great. Nothing better than pickin' with Dad and his brand new guitar.. inspired by YOU! ❤😊
It’s a good feeling when tears flow unconditionally
