I love Robert Cray; saw him live last year. But he got his start in the 1980s, and is therefore not an OG like BB King or Buddy Guy, who were around when blues transitioned from acoustic Mississippi Delta style to the electric Chicago style. No disrespect to Cray--dude's amazing.

I always liked their friendly rivalry. Buddy sang, "I admit you're getting down there, but I'm down much deeper than you are." Shots fired!
87 years old. Buddy is still up there. RESPECT!

@@Dnell-tb1ydOh, don't remind me. 😔 Kingfish is the friggin man, and he carries the torch of the Blues with bosslike proficiency and power (he ain't the only guy, but he's pretty good). He'd be my inspiration if i could figure out how to play his stuff. Lol. But he makes ME worried for him sometimes, and I have a bad habit of eating McDonald's like it's actually healthy. 😂

The old generation and the new. Awesome to see two eras of blues play together. Buddy’s still got it!
It's impossible to put into words how much the Strat and Buddy have impacted my life. Blues is not so popular here in Moscow, but there are great enthusiasts, and I am among them. We live here somewhat in a parallel universe since we have never met our idols, but the power of music knows no bounds. and I am grateful to fate that in my distant childhood I fell ill with this thing called the blues! with great love from Russia no matter what

God bless you, man, I was born and raised in Tupelo, Mississippi, the birthplace of Elvis Presley. It's cool that you dig the blues in Russia.
My son stood on that stage and jammed with Buddy during his annual January residency at Legends in Chicago this year, I am so thankful Buddy is still here, sharing the blues and inspiring young blues musicians, like the incredible Christone Kingfish Ingram, to keep the tradition alive. We’ll keeping sharing the Blues Buddy! Thank you @fender for a great video
What a Gentleman Mr.Guy. A humble and kind guitar giant. I can never listen to enough of his music. What a treasure! And Kingfish is carrying on that tradition. What a phenom he is!
87 years young. Buddy is a walking legend!
Man, he sang Hoochie Coochie Man with the spirit of Muddy Waters beside him. Long glory to this gentleman.
87 years still the blues.
When Buddy started singing (Hoochie Coochie Man) I got immediately goose bumps. Then Kingfish even raised the bar.
I can’t imagine how grateful Kingfisher must feel to be given the opportunity to be in the presence of one of the blues greats. He’s a lucky lad.
Buddy is the only Guy who ever made me laugh and feel the blues at the same time.
Gotta believe, that there's a real happy man, walking on this planet!!! Thanks Fender, for attending to our request!!! These stratcats, deserve this reverence, and show us why!!! Congrats!!
I am 54 and grew up in the suburbs of Chicago. I am very lucky to say that I have seen Buddy play at least 20 times at his previous location as well as many other venues. Never once was a bad show. One time his mic wasn't working and after the second song he yelled to the crowd, tonight will be all instrumentals and you come back next Sunday for free. He drank a glass of cognac between every song and played the shit out of his strat!! My favorite experience was when I saw him and Junior do an acoustic set at Legends, they recorded it and it is Live at Legends 1989. I am pretty sure Junior was a little too drunk that night, he was in the wrong key on one song and couldn't find the right harp, but they were awesome!! Buddy and Junior Play the Blues is one of the greatest albums ever recorded. Love you Buddy!!!

I am 62 from the south suburbs of Chicago. I had the privilege of being at Legends on the night Stevie Ray Vaughan visited the club back in 1985. The performance he and Buddy put on was truly exceptional, the best I have ever witnessed. They traded licks and seemed to thoroughly enjoy themselves. I have had the pleasure of seeing Mr. Guy perform many times over the years, and from the first show I attended to the most recent one, he consistently delivers an outstanding performance to his audience.
Great to still see Buddy out, on tour, playing.....one of the guy that brought the electric guitar to the world of blues and eventually rock and roll...
I wish the video didn’t end, Watching Kingfish playing next to Buddy reminds me of so many great players that stood next to Buddy and played, SRV, Albert Colins, Albert King, I am very proud of Kingfish
Words can't describe how lucky we are to have this, and to still have Buddy with us. Legends at work, together in the same room. I grabbed a Buddy Guy Strat last year or so and I'm so glad I did.
Blues will be in good hands. Passing of the torch right here.
When I look at buddy. I see the blues incarnate
Big props to Buddy. That man made records with my "White Boy Blues Heroes". This guy 0:31 did more for the blues than you can poke a stick. He's still shaking it. Good for you Buddy. You won, man.
I was driving down Cicero Ave in Chicago. The lane merged from three lanes to two lanes. A guy almost hit me because he didn’t see the merge coming. He was in a blue Rolls Royce coupe. It was Buddy. He gave me a waive as to say sorry. I happened to be bringing home a new Martin guitar. Buddy saw it in the front seat and smiled….Glad to see your feeling better Mr. Guy.God Bless!
God almighty, Buddy Guy is the realest sound of the blues. At least to me.
It's good to see younger blues. Players give legends like Buddy Guy their due respect.
Goodness his voice even better as he gets older.
Buddy's relic'd polkadot is gorgeous. You can tell he's played that for years

Buddy Guy is kind enough to have Blues Jams at his club in Chicago. Some of my favorite memories was playing there on Mondays/ Wednesdays. People from around the world would travel there to watch or play on that stage! Thank You Buddy Guy! Thank you Greg Guy !
Blessed to still have Buddy with us. Legend!
All the best to Buddy Guy- a true American original!
Blues....is still so strong....such a rich fabric of society even today
Long Live Buddy
Buddy is passing the torch to a younger generation.
There are not enough like buttons to express just how good this makes me feel.
I was fortunate to see this man back in the day and was once privileged to sit right up front in a bar downtown Austin, Tx watching the great Buddy Guy and it was incredible. GOD bless Buddy, an American treasure!
I still can’t realise how I’ve been able to play with both of them on main stages. I’m so thankful to you sir Buddy Guy thank you for inviting me on stage with you in Paris in 2018 and motivating me to continue guitar. And thank you so much, sir kingfish for doing the same two years ago ❤❤ love you and wish you the best
I got the pleasure of seeing both of them at the Kenny Wayne Sheppard festival concert in Bethel NY last year one of my absolute favorite concerts I've ever been too so happy got to see both Buddy Guy and Cristone Kingfish Ingram
Two different generations of blue players, but both a national treasures. Love listening to their music. Looking forward to seeing Buddy Guy on his last tour. If you are in Chicago, Buddy Guy's Legends is a must visit. Saw Albert Collins work over his tele there one night - a night to remember!!!!

Nothing will ever come close to the electric bluesmen who knew the source like Buddy, born on a cotton plantation hearing the remnants of slave chants But i do love to hear ppl like Kingfish try to capture that spirit
Buddy is an absolute legend. I love my Buddy Strat.
Musicianship is about many things, but the one thing beaming from these guys' faces is respect. Respect across the generations. Respect of the craft, of tradition, respect of what the other cat is doing. Who cares if they're selling some Strats in the process? Gotta respect the hustle, too.
Buddy is a National treasure. Chris will be one one day. He is well on his way! Respect you both!!!!!
Oh that was wonderful. No backing band needed, just two great soulful musicians and their tools of choice. A powerful demonstration how the Blues are bridging the gap between the generations.
Thanks very much for this, Fender, enjoyed it very much. It's made my afternoon over here in East Africa. Blues Music breaths life into life, Blues Music is life. A big round of applause for Buddy Guy and his generation of Blues Musicians, and a big round of applause too, for newer generation Blues Musicians such as Christone “Kingfish” Ingram. Regards, Michael M. Kamau, Nairobi, Kenya, East Africa, 7th May 2024.
Buddy's expression in his voice is like fine wine
A legend and one soon to be legend right there! Guys like Kingfish give me plenty of hope for the future of blues. Nothing like some strat single coils through a Hot Rod or Twin Reverb.
That is pure poetry!

I was lucky enough to meet buddy in Legends in oct 22...... an absolute gentleman .... I will remember and cherish that moment till my dying day ..... thanks for the music and the laughs buddy .
Many moons ago, South Carolina Festival - Stopped for Gas, Show across the Street for Free. Buddy and about 200ft of Guitar Cable....that area has never recovered from the Showmanship that evening. I saw and felt the Legend up close and personal....Liquid.
I may be another drop in a sea of guitarists, but this drop is grateful to this man, Mr. Buddy Guy, for both introducing me to the Blues and the guitar to play it. So, 4 Strats on the rack and a heap of inspiration from Mr. Guy, I'm in Blues heaven. Thank you Mr. Guy, and thank you Fender.
It's great to see the generations of blues getting this chance to do something like this together
Two masters that we're very lucky to have.
What an iconic set. the old and new generation of the Blues. I love it.
Buddy's style is one of my favorites.. the man had such a fun playful way of picking those strings... Im glad I got to see him last summer... And Kingfish, keep going brother. You're well on your way.
Good to see Buddy Guy still killing it, good to see Kingfisher here as well.
I'm thankful that my time alive has loosely coincided with the lives of three guitar players: Buddy Guy, David Gilmour, and Malcom Young. Buddy's music has been with me since my earliest days of listening to and appreciating music. When my friends were listening to Zeppelin, Kiss, & Black Sabbath, I was listening to Buddy. His album Sweet Tea is in my Top 5 favorites of all time.
1 bluesman legend & 1 future legend. Love this. 😎💙 Rip Muddy
Respect to both of you 🙏🏻💙
Nothing like the real deal playing a real deal. Often imitated but never duplicated.
Buddy is my Hero , Kingfish is a Blues Hero too 🇮🇹
I was blessed to see Buddy Guy with Jonny Lang at the Greek years ago. Chris Ingram and Samantha Fish are on my bucket list. 🎸
Just recently saw Kingfish live! If there ever was a torch bearer man, he is it! Two legends ❤ in the building!
This is just incredible, two legends with respect for one another vibin' off one another.
Buddy Guy is legend..amazing..true bluesman ..Kingfish is great and very talented and he will be same legend as Mr. Guy one day ❤🎵🎸
This video is pure gold. Thank you Fender, Buddy Guy and Kingfish Ingram.
Mr. Ingram: what a great voice for singing the blues. Fantastic
The king and the crown prince
I hope I can hurry up and get my chops up so I can play with Buddy while he's still here. He's such a legend that he has legendary offspring (Shawnna).
Both their neck pickups are just too sweet and clean, that's how my Strats play and I wouldn't have em any other way... kudos Buddy and Kingfish!

Yeah but is you fretboard maple or rosewood ? Have a couple strats,ok more than a couple 😂 but the brightest one I've got is an old 20th anniversary Squier strat body with an old Japanese Squier neck with rosewood and it's the best sounding, playing and best looking strat I've got. Maybe the 500k pots make it bright or maybe it's the alnico 3 magnets !?

Buddy Guy - I just love that man so damn much! When I thinks of him playin’ I always think of Stevie because I know how close they was to each other. Real down home blues cats. Oh I miss them.
Love this. “You can’t beat a Strat. You can beat it, you can scratch it, but you can’t stop it from playing.” A damn fine description. My Stratocaster is built like a tank. It flew twenty feet into the air because my friend threw it on accident when he swung it over his shoulder on my lawn. It landed headstock first, and only needed a neck tweak back straight, but was still in tune. Even though it was lawn, the landing would have snapped the headstock off other brands but not my Fender Strat.
there's so much awesome here I'm shocked the damn walls didn't come tumbling down
Man the colour grade on this is sublime too
As attributed Stevie Ray Vaughn: “Nobody could play out of tune like Buddy Guy!” Magnificent!
My guitars is my wife ....the sound of a dedication for music thanks for all!
I love both of these guys! Great artists! 70 years of awesome Strats! ❤
Living legend with great company
Foi um prazer imenso ter tido a oportunidade de ver um show de Buddy Guy em 2023 que ocorreu na cidade de São Paulo - Brasil. Um dos grandes expoentes do Blues, talvez seja um dos últimos nomes da velha guarda, dos anos 60 ainda em atividade, junto com outros bluseiros conseguiram atravessar fronteiras e chegar até aos ouvintes brasileiros. King Fish está pegando esse bastão do blues e levando o nome adiante, espero que consiga fazer tanto sucesso quanto foram seus conterrâneos (bb King , Buddy Guy, Albert King, SRV e outros) . Nada com um bom blues tocado em uma strato Fender.. aliás, tenho também a honra de tocar um blues abrasileirado em uma strato fender 1978.
I was blessed to see B.B. King and Buddy Guy play the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville during their 2007 tour. B.B. was singing and playing seated by then, and Mr. Buddy Guy was an absolute Gentleman who supported and respectfully carried the show that night. It was sad seeing B.B. like that, but it was still one of the most special concerts I’ve had the privilege of attending. Buddy Guy is the epitome of classy cool! If that doesn’t sum up the Blues, I don’t know what does. Long live the Blues! Fender deserves kudos for helping to keep the Blues alive by focusing on the young ones coming up like Mr. Ingram. This is the 70th Anniversary of the Stratocaster, and they have some amazing Strats on offer.
Strat screaming forever ❤
