The power he plays with is just incredible. Volume wise he can legitimately make an acoustic guitar hang with an electric guitar thru a 30 watt amp. It's insane how clean and loud he plays.

@@heathkish6901 I had forgotten I had written that and reading the comment only, I thought "now here's a guy who understands"! Time for me to go to the retirement home...
The first time I heard this man I thought he was just a flash in the pan,…just a show off ,of sorts. It sure looks like I was wrong and “oh my!”, how he’s come along. It just shows how if you don't go wrong and keep your nose to the old grindstone,you just may be that someone,you always were,in your spirit form.Yep.I sure was wrong!Thank you Billy.You make me smile with new hope for this old street/folk singer. “With all the LOVE cooked in”(Slow Food by Greg Brown)
This is one of the most talented young men I've ever heard. He absolutely owns that guitar and couldn't be any quicker of a picker. The first time I saw him, I thought to myself now if this guy can keep his liquor and drug use under control he's really going places. I'm wondering if he was born with a guitar in hand. If not then he had music in him since birth. He's definitely a winner.
Yes Ive researched this and have followed him as long as I can remember .Him and his father played together all the time when he was a youngster. I learned a lot from my Dad about Ham radio, but I'll never be the guy he was. He built his own radio from a kit in 63. Then he had free rain of Mather Air Force Bases surplus radio parts. He and I built him a Ham shack in the garage and he was able to talk to anyone around the world. But they call these smartphones and there no smarter than the person behind it.
@@AshevilleVintageGuitar Ive watched a lot of his videos and Ive never seen him even look wasted. It's just hope it stays that way. There's a lot of talent in this young man. I'd just hate to hear he had gotten into drugs.
BILLY YOUR TALENT is the biggest inspiration for all the world will become a better place by your talent. Thanks forever man see you in Iowa soon tear up the Uk 🇬🇧 brother.
He is very clearly not just someone who picked up a guitar and wanted to start playing/writing music. He is Talented and Gifted (TAG) for sure. Quite a prodigy.
💕💕💕💕he is the MOST PRECIOUS thing with that short hair. Saw him front center in Wisconsin 2 weeks ago opening night. MAKE THE DRIVE TO ANOTHER STATE IF YA HAVE TO TO SEE HIM LIKE I DID. YA WONT REGRET it. No Illinois show this year. We got to see him at his last social distance show in Schaumburg Illinois last summer.
Always have to check to see if I've mistakenly sped up your videos, Billy. You're truly incredible, brother. I wish and pray for all things Good and great in your and your family's lives. This tune reminded me of my father playing me Mississippi John in the early 70's. Thank you! 😊❤
