To celebrate Jenning's legacy, Fender Custom Shop partnered with the Jennings family to replicate Waylon’s iconic leather-covered mid-’50s Telecaster. Using two of his go-to guitars as inspiration, Masterbuilder David Brown meticulously selected modifications and details from both to recreate a version of what Waylon’s guitar would have looked and sounded like in the mid-to-late ’70s.
The Limited Edition Waylon Jennings Telecaster features a two-piece ash body finished in period-correct Butterscotch Blonde and wrapped in a distinctive, hand-tooled leather cover designed by renowned craftsman Cody Hixon. Other notable details include Custom Shop Hand-Wound ’50/’51 Blackguard pickups and Schaller M6 tuning machines with a low E banjo tuner to capture Waylon’s signature tone and sound.
The result is a rare, refined and remarkable instrument worthy of the legend it is inspired by. To hear the origin story of Jennings’ leather-clad Tele, how Custom Shop designed this limited edition model and hear it in action, check out this video featuring Shooter Jennings and David Brown.

Lana Del Rey doesn’t just pick up shifts at Waffle House — she sings at dive bars, too!
The singer-songwriter, 38, serenaded the crowd at Robert’s Western World with a cover of Tammy Wynette’s classic country song “Stand by Your Man” on Sunday. Fans captured footage Del Rey performing in the iconic 150-capacity venue.
“If you guys cheer loud enough, she might move all the way to Nashville, Tennessee. She is a sensation, she is the most country motherf---er in Robert’s tonight, Lana Del Rey.”
After seeming to confirm with the guitarist that the band knew how to play the 1968 Wynette country-pop hit, the alternative artist, took to the microphone. Frequently smiling throughout the surprise performance, Del Rey thrilled the crowd when she crooned the song’s powerful chorus.
Many clips surfaced of Del Rey’s Nashville appearance, many of Robert’s Western World’s patrons sang along to the cover.
