Imagine being so cool that when you draw on a Gibson Gold top with a marker- the value goes up
Indeed, that guitar, with the video to probe it, will sell very well!
@David Gillard not if billy does it
David Gillard depends on the artist. If I had a Banksy Porsche you know someone would make me a millionaire 😂
David Gillard. No. you drawing on a guitar lowers the value cause you’re just David Gillard. When you have millions of fans like Billy Gibbons it increases.
@@geetarguy777 You'd have to leave your car out because Banksy doesn't like to be seen.
Met him at an airport. He gave me a bottle opener. It sits in my office. Nobody knows that he gave it to me, nor would they believe it. But I know.
Oh hey same here - a little list of encounters .. hung out / jammed with heavy cats -few if any know as few if any would believe - validation doesn't matter ..... 👍😎
Thats cool
tonecrazy88 I’d believe you. Wanna beer? 🍻
I totally get it. I smoked weed with an actor from disney channel a couple years back. Nobody believed me but I know it happened
Jose Magana lmao who
Damnnn. Billy is smooth with a marker.
as smooth as his licks
@@ronnierazor4302 Had to read that twice. Thought you wrote, "as smooth as he licks" 😳
@@icehatfpv5856 😅
Yep, that's a pretty steady hand.
Icehat FPV If that beard could talk. 😂
Billy: “Would you like me to double the value of your guitar?”
Me: “Please, right this way!”
More like half lol
@David Gillard Really now? If Gibbons would've drawn a dick and signed it would've still doubled the value.
It might increase the value but it definitely reduces the potential pool of buyers.
Did anyone maybe come to the conclusion that maybe he's not selling it? Idk about anyone else but I buy guitars so I can play them
@David Gillard You again, the only thing that is lower is the intelligence of your comments.
Crazy how he’s signed millions of things, but he still took his time into doing this really well.
why do peoole feel like celebrities are not normal
Billy's a super nice guy.
uhMaxx because people like myself think, “man, if I was asked for millions of signatures and pictures all my life, even when I’m in a shitty mood, I’m not sure I’d be able to give it that much effort; after 40 years of it.”
uhMaxx Why do people assume things that people didn’t even say?
Maybe because it’s a guitar
As a former Stagehand that worked for many years assembling various concerts, I would say Mr Billy Gibbons was the most amazing and personable performer I ever met. I have done 7 shows for him. Every time he not only came down to thank the crew , he personally acknowledged me in every show we pulled together. He even went so far as to inform the company I was working for that he would replace them if I wasn't on his calls.
God Bless Billy Gibbons.
In the same field bro, Billy is chill as ... cool story.
Devon Allman did the same for me ✌
@@DirkDillingerBlues Hi Dirk , nice to meet a brother Stagehand. Where are you from sir? I was living in Vegas ... Now outside Oklaholma City.
@@KevinLee-ri9ko I am in New Brunswick Canada and just retired after 22 years with IATSE brotherhood ✊
🧢
That breathless "thank you Billy" at the end says it all.
Insane how smooth he did those first two lines . This is the coolest cat out there .
Absolutely did not expect that !! 😎😎😎
I wonder how many guitars he's done like this
Met him in a deli in Manhattan in 2001, I didn’t want to bother him but by coincidence I had read in the paper that morning that it was his birthday so I said “Hey ZZ Top, Happy Birthday” and he beamed “aw thanks maaan!” I think he expected me to ask for his autograph but I left him alone. I was behind him in line and he bought a shit ton of water to bring back to the W hotel. Paid with a Amex gold card and said good night to me as he walked out. That was my celebrity brush with greatness (old Late Night fans know this needs some writers embellishment)
Unbeknownst to me, Billy was actually buying the waters to drown a giant rat that had crawled out of the toilet and taken over his room. Later that evening as I was walking over by the hotel a huge lifeless rat struck me in the head and knocked me to the ground. Looking up I saw Billy standing on a 5th floor balcony leering at me like a lunatic. With a maniacal grin he shook his fist and screamed, "And a happy birthday to you too skippy!!!"
They should consider making a Billy signature with that striping.
It looks pretty cool with the gold top
...they do have a Gibbons Signature Les Paul. es.gibson.com/Products/Electric-Guitars/Les-Paul/Gibson-Custom/Billy-F-Gibbons-Goldtop.aspx

Billy’s business card says “Billy Gibbons- friend of Eric Clapton”
LOL! His card should say, "Billy Gibbons - friend of God".
laj043 should say “Billy Gibbons AKA God”
Imagine walking into a bar with only like 4 people in it, and you sit down with Eric Clapton and Billy gibbons and have a conversation....
Comparing Clapton to Gibbons is like comparing Potsy to The Fonz. Billy is the big man on campus and Clapton is the kindergarten kid.
Roy Mange I don’t think anyone is comparing dude. I’m just telling you what it says on his business card
My buddy did a tour opening for ZZ. Said Billy hung with them all the time.
One day he points out my friends don’t have a band logo on their bass drum
“Nobody will know who you are” said billy.
He promptly started to design a logo, print it and tape it on the drum.
He still has the logo.
What band was it?
Robert Fikes Flash Lighting
The fact his hands aren’t shaky makes me respect him even more.
No shit
Dude is legend, even his daughter is famous actress, he gave SRV one his famous first guitars, back in the 70s he rode that kind of life out and is still here.
What does shaky hands have to do with respect?? I’m quite lost here
So you would lose respect for someone just because their hands shake?
Cody McGrew because shaky hands make precision more difficult sometimes
My dentist went to school with Billy Gibbons and showed up at his office during my visit......my dentist had me answer the door and what a rush...Billy G!! We had been talking about him for a year and he thought it would be cool if Billy came to visit and pick up his new gold grill for his teeth.....awesome day.....I didn't even care how much he charged me for my visit. Billy is REALLY laid back folks....Mr. Cool.....btw...Jimi Hendrix said Billy Gibbons was the best blues guitarist he'd ever heard....what an endorsement.
@David Clinging he gave him a guitar, so he liked him at the very least...Jimi did tell one of the horn players that Terry Kath was a better player than he was (which was correct).
Dude is heavily into hotrods. That looked like it was done by a pinstripe master. Very nice. Steve
Jusy google "Cadzilla" ...love that car...😆
Check out his Grocery getter El Camino on Counts Customs on the velocity channel.
@princewish wow you really got him there champ. Can't argue with logic like that
Ed Roth and Von Dutch are pinstripe masters.. all he did was have seizure with a marker in his hand and ruin that Gibson top
He probably has done some pinstripping on his hot rods. He's got a smooth hand. Cool as hell
He's a walking Custom Shop!
Also, it’s nice to read a comment section where everyone is being nice and not insulting anyone over nothing! For real that’s awesome. Glad all of y’all don’t suck! Stay safe.
Well said and I agree, it's definitely a rare thing on RUclips.👍
Your comment is stooooopid ! Blah blah blah you're stoooooopid,everything's stoooooooopid ! Hahaha just having fun. But you're right though. It is nice.
👍
bless 🙏🏼
Yeah I agree I try to not read comments but I always do for the same reason when someone says there’s some crazy shit happening you go but yeah this is a chill comment section man I like it💚✌️
He has the hand of an artist. An easy fluid confident motion. Beautiful in its own right.
This turned up in my recommendations, wasn't sure what to expect before watching, but was really fascinated by the juxtaposition of focus and liberty on display with that marker. Loved it.
That is the coolest autograph I think I've ever seen, wow...the best part is u can see how much he cares & wants it to look great.
He’s such an icon. Seriously… you were in the presence of a man that was looked up to by Hendrix. Also, I know it’s probably strange but Billy is how I imagined Dime would’ve been at that age had he not been killed. RIP Dusty, Dime & Vinnie
Billy G is the man. Just saw zz top 3rd row a few weeks ago. Just great. Now, I just bought a stripe kit and even after practicing for a few days now, it is apparent Mr. Gibbons is a pro at this art form.
Go clear coat over that before it comes off.
Exactly what I was thinking
That was amazing. What's crazy to me is that he just goes at it, and it works. No super careful, slow work. He just....did it.
he didnt know how to do it but he did but he did but he did
an i thank you
lol!
Best response ever!
Fo sho!
Di di did I stutter?
Holy shit. Do people understand how hard it is to do what he just did with no apparent effort?! I am f**king impressed....
"Thank you Billy".
Yes, thats how we all feel.
ZZ Top played at the local casino I live near by. My mom had worked there since I was about ten & they happened to want to eat at one of the restaurants in the casino & of course my mom was their waitress. She got me an autograph on a small napkin. I’m glad she did, because i’m a huge fan now
Whoa, How kind to spend time and take such care over what he did there. What a lovely man.
Thanks for sharing this
Beautiful! Enjoy it. I have a red Billy Bo he also did. You can see his 'feel' in the line work too. - just confirms his touch is magic.
Added instant 5 times the value of that guitar to it in one minute. Tuns out Billy G is an artist in more ways than I expected.
Awesome!!.. Back in 2015, tried that with the singer of “Big Mountain”, Quino, to autograph my guitar. He was a lil drunk and spelled my name wrong. The guitar was a $2000 Stratocaster. He felt bad and apologized... Turns out he lived in the same town and we became friends. Now we have a funny story to tell, “the autograph story”... Yup, I still have the guitar.
Oh thats cool man. Billy is a rock legend and forever will be.
The striping and autograph are worth more than the guitar.
Sooo cooool.
I was sitting in Dick Dale’s living room with my Strat. He went and got his gold Beast Strat, and handed it to me as I handed mine to him. We each turned them upside down and played for an hour. Just my wife witnessed this as my boys were playing with his son in the other room. Then he signed my Strat. RIP Dick!🙏🙏
Long live Billy G.🙏🙏
Having Billy Gibbons sign my guitar would rank right up there with the day Earl Scruggs played & autographed my banjo.
Billy is a true, all around, pure artist. Visual, sonically, overall presentation. Dude just radiates cool.
That is crazy amazing.
Billy G., cool as a cucumber and steady as a surgeon with that paint marker.
Most talented, cool and intelligent man the business ever had. Lucky to have seen him play live before.
My pops is friends with Mr.Gibbons...I’ve hung and got super stoned with him...we jammed too....great man, rock legend
He is just the most Authentic person ever ... When he is in the desert he comes into Clark's Nutrition, you cannot help but love him !!
I've never thought it was cool to get an artist to sign a guitar... until now that is ;-)
Billy Gibbons is one of the coolest guitarists alive. He did an amazing job with this, it looks great! Beautiful guitar by the way too.
Did you spray this with lacquer afterward?
You should see Willie Nelson’s Trigger.
Many country legends signed that guitar.
@@JNava Wow, it's amazing that it's still in one piece no?
@@hearpalhere I believe it's been repaired at least once iirc
@@gaberobinson5131 Yep, it seems like it has had multiple repairs and gets regular fixes with glue, lacquer, etc ruclips.net/video/uhQuJTc5yFY/видео.html
@@hearpalhere still amazing nonetheless
Dude! I can not stress enough how damn cool it would be to have this happen. The Reverend pinstriping my personal les paul. Congrats man, i hope that guitar is passed down in your family for generations
Billy is down to earth. Excellent musician.
This man is clearly from another world!
God bless BFG!
👍🇦🇺
How cool is that. Awesome
Great how Billy takes the time and care into making his work look right! True gentleman
I met him back in 1996 while working in a shop in Covent Garden. Very nice kind gentleman. Very open. Willing to take the time to talk to me about music and life.
That was amazing as my dad paints and whatnot but the speed billy hit that was phenomenal. “
That's so freaking cool!
Koolest dude on this earth!!!
I just get so completely lost in this every time. Few individuals take this time, and care, with their fans. Kudos to you for sharing this with us on the interwebs.
... and I love the 'Thank you, Billy' at the end.
Wow! That is truly amazing! I bet you were over the moon and grinning ear to ear. I'm sure you watched the Netflix doc about them. It made me love BG even more.
i chilled with him at the california speedway once this guy is the up most gentle man you would ever meet cool as heel
You mean Utmost. Not up most.
Jim Morris Autocorrected, probably
What a talent. Great moment to capture. Thank you.
Truly Original and Well Thought Out By Billy Very Kind Of Him .
Jimi Hendrix said that Billy was his favorite guitarist. That alone says enough. Texas boy 🤙
Hah there's a never-ending list of guitar player jimi thought were the best 😁
Billy Gibbons is the man. How many guitars has he signed in his career? A true gent, takes the time to create yet another priceless Les Paul for a fan. One of the best concerts I’ll ever see live is ZZ Top.
I saw ZZ TOP at the Spectrum in Philadelphia . At that time 3 bands played. They were number 2 on the roster. Dave Mason was the headliner, I think. Anyway ZZ TOP were so good that people started leaving when Dave Mason came on. TRES HOMBRES was the album they were promoting. I think it was 1977
I generally hate signatures on guitars, but he did a great job. It looks genuinely cool!
Billy "It's not every day some idiot lets me scrawl marker all over their $3000 guitar" Gibbons.
A. I it’s a gold top, not exactly cheap, it’s worth more now
Whatever it was worth, now it's worth double.
@@a.i799 That's not saying a lot LOL. "Cheap" gibsons (Not counting the very bare minimum budget models which have significantly better Epiphones for the price) are $1500+.
@@a.i799 its prob a 50s or 60s goldtop and yes its a wallet buster

BG...one of the best ever ! We need to cherish our music legends while their still on earth. We’ll all be gone too soon.
The real value now for this marvelous guitar is in your heart !!! i supose that never you sell this item ...
You are a lucky man realy .... Eric from France
Met Billy at a Hilton garden inn in IL. Class act! Really, genuinely, cool guy!
Billy Gibbons is not just a great guitarist, he is a great American, and a great human being.
Man he just blessed him , seriously. I would of been in tears 😢
That goldtop will get value over time baby!!!!
It has become a work of art!
Classy dude. He was an artist creating art right there. Stopping and thinking about it, not wanting to do too much. Class and style. I’d pay money to detail his truck.
That’s sweet! Those Tribute LPs are such great guitars.
Omg at first I didn’t realize who was doing this and thought they were crazy but that is bad ass. Very cool Billy’s awesome.
I was striping at a car show at the old armory in Austin back in the 80s and I look up and there was BG watching me do a hot rod. He watched for a while and said "man that looks cool"
That's so cool💯 Billy is a true rock and roll hero and a very great artist👌
We love him and we love ZZ-Top🙏
That’s awesome, I got one of my guitars signed by two of my favourite singers, it’s a hell of a feeling to watch’m sign it; especially the way Billy did lol damn I wish I’d thought of recording it!!!
I could see this for forever
I just can't stop watching this
Ya'll gotta realize he does pinstripe work on cars...
Billy is the only person who can sign my Goldtop, no matter what he would draw. He could draw some poop on it and I would be smiling from cheek to cheek
Never thought I'd have a Billy Gibbons ASMR moment
Man, he's muti-talented. He's bad, he's nationwide! How cool!
Does anyone else get goosebumps watching this?
BG, all around, amazing artist. So cool...💚
That is sooo awesome. Always loved that pinstripe look. Very beautiful axe brother.
That is the coolest thing I have seen in a while..
So cool of him to do that for you! I bet it was a nice break for him from signing the usual generic autograph, and you ended up with a one of a kind creation that's probably worth at least a grand more now... badass!
Wow BIlly has such a steady hand and what a great job ✌️
Daaang, Billy banged it out quick with that marker! Very impressive.
Absolute gentleman that guy
For some reason i got an asmr type feeling watching this
Yes!!! I was thinking the same
Very awesome, my man. That right there is incredible!
I'm not a Texan but huge respect to all TX musicians. Thanks🤙
My God what a true HONOR that would be!!!!! Lucky Lucky Man!!!!
Man, what a treat! And it actually looks awesome!
Pretty awesome .... that came out great!
The king of cool doing the coolest thing I have seen. Amazing.
So cool! He actually cared and put thought into that!
Looks like one of the Gibbons Les Pauls :) such a smooth job
You see with a true artist it doesn't matter what is in their hands, it just turns into magic, he threw those strokes like Michael fucking Angelo, you lucky bastard.
That is sooooo COOL!!! Bloody AWESOME!!!
Man how cool is that! Great bar stool story!👍🎸🇨🇦
You lucky bastard, touched by ultimate coolness!
