Can you imagine ur son getting to the status of having custom signature instruments and then giving you the flagship 1st of the edition? I mean God man how sick
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.
There ain’t no musician on the planet that don’t dream about a moment like this’un
So awesome to see him be able to do that.. Poppa is the reason Billy can play... I almost cried...lol...
Cherish that beautiful relationship with your father.... life don't get better than that... make the most of it while you can ...
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 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...
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
Your dad is a Rock Star!
Always good to view real guitar players
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.
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.
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?
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...
Love it. This man raised a good boy and I love how he's always mindful and grateful about that.
Darn near made ME cry. Wish someone would gift my old Martin D18 back to me. 😭 (or a new one! 😁)
Well done young man, well done. Without family, the world is a cold cold place.
Billy your a good soul, that loves an honor's your Dad. ❤
What a sweet gesture, he really loves the man who raised him and taught him everything he knows about playing. God Bless, Billy.
His dad seems like a good fella you'd have a beer with down at the local after work 👍
I needed a good cry today... thanks Billy n Terry, that was beautiful in every way, shape and form 👏 🥰
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!!
I'd sell or trade my 67 impala fer one of those 33 signature Billy Strings guitars!!!! Love you Billy and Terry!!
Billy you make daddy proud......you’re awesome kid pls stay away from drugs because God is enough for you he’s greater than any drugs can give. Enough with your tattoos you’re always handsome inside out because we knows even those who envy you.
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.
This father son relationship touches my heart. The world needs these two right now.
I'm glad the first one was given to him. This is beautiful!
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.
19 thumbs down? Really? You haters can try and take the love and compassion out of life,but the rest of us ain't havin it.Billy and his evolving relationship with his father over the last couple of years is one of the nicest,sweetest stories that let's me hang on to a glimmer of hope for all the poor lost souls out there.there are just some people who cant handle reality,prosperity and selflessness.Do you think Billy set this up to monetize it or do some ego showe'n off.no way,Billy is to humble for that.all he wants is make papa proud and give his father the thrill of a lifetime setting him to play professionally and make a little coin in the meantime.Billy gets it the fact that people do for loved ones because the
Because they want to.he knows that doing the right thing,is it's own reward.im sure Terry taught him that
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?
Billy you are a blessed man.
That’s awesome, man! Thanks for dads!
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.
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
That touched my heart.
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.
Billy you rock dude we truly see that you love your dad
That's a beautiful gift for your dad Billy. Nice job.
That's pretty great. Nothing better than pickin' with Dad and his brand new guitar.. inspired by YOU! ❤😊
Good man Billy. Made an old guy happy right tgere
Could have given him a 5 miliioin dollar guitar and he wouldn’t have been as happy or as proud as he was with this. It’s every fathers dream to see their son become successful...
Dad gave Billy the gift of music and Billy has run with it. Billy says thank you dad.
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!!!
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.
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.
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.
Billy Strings is the Best!!!!
My god what a masterpiece.U the man billy
when life is good... share it with Dear 'Ol Dad. I like this kid more all the time.
36 dislikes....really. It's a beautiful thing to see the bond between a father & son. Beautiful moment....thanks for sharing!
Now that was well deserved, how proud his father must be !
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!
This young obviously loves his dad very much. What a tribute.
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.
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.
that boy already made his father immensely proud
For all you dads out there watching this right now, its ok to be crying
Billy your amazing
A boy who was raised to be a good man...Good on you Billy👍
My favorite videos are of you and your Dad playing together.
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.
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!
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!
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.🙏
"It already feels like a darlin." 1:35 lol. I instantly like that man. Good deal, golden memory Billy Strings.
Makes me wanna cry. I love these moments.
Yalls relationship reminds me so much of me and my dads. Good stuff 🙂
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.
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
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.
Thank you! Billy, its great to see your love and respect for your “Pop”. I miss my Dad everyday. God bless you brother.
Billy Strings, keep on grooving son and keep on spoiling your old man, cos he's worth more than any guitar.
Very cool video. Mad respect to Strings and his dad
What a gift, and a legacy. Remember, there wouldn’t be a Billy Strings without a Daddy Strings!
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.
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!
so sweet❤❤❤❤❤
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.
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
Beautiful. Dad is proud of his boy
Feels like a darlin! Omg relationship goals! Nice work BILLY!
That is a wonderful gift to your Dad. I know he appreciates it. God Bless you both.
Such a beautiful video. God bless you two.
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 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
There is NOTHING better than music to bond a Father & Son FOREVER!!! 🎸🎶🎶🎶
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.
That is so cool.....
Great Son, Great Dad, Great Guitar...your awesome dude!
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.
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.
Billy takes good care of the old man..and he deserves it. Hell yes guys hell yes.
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.
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.
As a guitar player who is the only musician in my family, I so admire and envy you Billy.
For one thing I was never as close to my dad as you obviously are to yours and the fact that you both are great guitar players makes it even better.
I would love to have spent time with you and your family. I can imagine the holidays would be music all day long and well into the night.
Oh, I should also mention that I never liked bluegrass growing up in fact I never liked it at all until I heard you on RUclips for the first time a couple years ago.
Many thanks to you and your dad for sharing your gift of music and a small glimpse into your life. What a joy, thank you so much.
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 dad taught me how to play guitar. If only I could have thanked him in this way.
A great thing to see; the love of a Father and Son. Cheers!
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
Way to go Billy. Great gift for the old man. Cheers brothers
