I had the privilege of meeting Billy in 1990 when he was located in Homewood, and then followed him to Highland music where he and his daughters built that famous strat of many colors. WOW!
He did later build me a Tele style guitar that I cherish till this day, and will not change anything on it.

Billy, you would laugh but I like to tell people about the grand guitar wizard who could bring the house down with those burning leads. Miss your laughter and all those cars you used to fix up, too.
