Buddy Holly became famous for his music. He was a guitar player (guitar of choice was a Fender Stratocaster) among other instruments he played every now and then like the accoustic guitar, some piano, some experience in drumming, harmonica and country steel guitar. As well as that, he was famous for being a song writer and singer. He performed early Rock 'N Roll which back then was called "Rock-a-billy" because of the roots in R&B mixed with country. Elvis was known as a rock-a-billy singer when he first emerged as well. Then between the two of them and other singers....it became rock 'n roll.
