While I will always think of Waylon as the Balladeer, narrator, and performer of the theme song “The Good Ol’ Boys” from the Dukes of Hazzard TV show, he has had a long and storied career. From playing bass with Buddy Holly in the late-‘50s (yes, he was on that gig at the Surf Ballroom in Clear Lake, Iowa the day the music died), to writing and preforming with The Highwaymen (Johnny Cash, Waylon Jennings, Willie Nelson and Kris Kristofferson) well into the ‘90’s, Waylon Jennings etched a legacy in music history unlike any other. The Outlaw Country pioneer was rarely seen without a Fender in hand—and more often than not, it was his prized, leather-clad 1954 Telecaster.

Custom Shop Masterbuilder David Brown partnered with the Jennings family to recreate Waylon’s iconic Telecaster—detailing all the wear from decades of use. The 2-piece Ash body is finished in period-correct Butterscotch Blonde before being wrapped in the distinctive, hand-tooled leather cover and paired with a one-piece quartersawn Maple neck, carved to a comfy 10/56 “V” profile. Custom Shop Hand-Wound ‘50/’51 Blackguard pickups provide unmistakable early-‘50s Telecaster tone with clear, crisp highs with well-balanced midrange and low end.

Additional features include: 7.25” Radius; 21 Vintage Upgrade (45085) Frets; Modern Telecaster Wiring with 3-Way Switch; ‘51-’54 Tele® Bridge with Brass Barrel Saddles; Schaller M6 Tuning Machines with Low E Banjo Tuner; Bone Nut; Single Disc String Tree; Custom Western Tooled Case; Custom Tooled Leather Strap; Certificate of Authenticity.

NOTE: The included Custom Shop Tooled Leather Case and Tooled Leather Strap are different from the production model Accessories versions which are available separately. Fender estimates this run to begin shipping in Q4 of this year (2023).
