I was told those Telecaster Guitars with the leather wrap were first made in 1970's/late 1960's semi hollow body Fender Telecasters but the model with the standard pickup setup for a Telecaster, not the 70's or 70's style specials with the Dual humbuckers. This was to have the guitar lighter due to Waylon Jennings lean but then make it more chambered body so he could turn up the instrument louder so he could play bigger venues in the 1970's.

"I'm not gonna give it to you, I gave it to you in there." That's so great.

It was the mid 70'S. My dad had season tickets for the Cleveland Browns. During the preseason,after the game, they would have a concert in order to sell tickets. His partners didn't want to see a preseason game so he'would take me,because he didn't want to waste a ticket . After one game, a flatbed pulled out onto the field, and Waylon and Willie played a show. I wasn't even 10, but i can say i saw them. Also, The Beach Boys played one time too

Man I enjoy all of your videos but I absolutely love anything about Waylon!!! I was fortunate enough to meet Waylon in Vegas in the 90s at the Rio Casino, the Highwaymen were playing, Waylon talked to me and my Wife for about 25 minutes, he was absolutely the nicest Man you could evva meet, it was definitely the highlight of my life ❤!!!

[@patrickmcelhone1446]

I drove gary to a gig once and carried his gibson 335? in to the show with Delbert. Sweet guy and talented songwriter/ musician. Great interview Otis thanks for posting it

[@Friscorockhead]

Waylon has a reputation, but everything I've heard from people who knew him said he was a great, kind man. What a legend!

[@hypnocracy6102]

I just love how Billy Joe Shaver and Whacko from Waco keeps coming back around to Otis' interviews 🤣

[@gtd-sq2pj]

This is music conservation. Thank you, Ottis.

[@Caperhere]

Wow, he kept it all through the years.😊

[@krisj827]

There needs to be movie on Waylon's life

[@otisgibbs]

This is the song Gary wrote with Waylon the day he gave him the tele! kzbin.info/www/bejne/q2LRp4WFqNulerMsi=G1wU7isi0i5xd-sQ

[@becarefulwithafool5019]

Great song! Nobody writes like that anymore. Thanks!

[@billyweeksrealsmallclosetm8484]

otis, you're on a roll! ❤

[@johngolden4468]

Saw Waylon at The Ryman after a Jerry Lee Lewis show. He and Jesse were getting in a limo and he was bigger than life! After we lost Waylon, they had a garage sale at his house in Brentwood. That's a once in a lifetime experience! Thanks Otis!

[@billyshane3804]

Brilliant stuff yet again Otis. Love your work. Thanks for posting. Fantastic.

[@frankflstf]

That is the most solid bad ass story I’ve ever heard about the guitar is so cool how generous what a great story

[@floydstowe]

I loved Waylon this interview was awesome

[@macdaddy63]

Thanks for sharing this!

[@stevielightnin9771]

I'm liking these videos more and more. A real treasure trove. Thanks Otis.

[@frankflstf]

Great content doesn’t get any better thank you

[@timothycarter8049]

Really liked this one Otis. Real nice.

[@williamaeronlewis]

HARDCORE , THE STORY ABOUT THE BUDDY HOLLY GIG , DAMN , SON. ! !! ! I mean I don't expect too much good news from stories from the biz but that is ICE COLD

[@TheOldYellers]

So he still has the guitar? I love Waylon

[@melodymakermark]

I’d fly over to Scotland with it and have Knopfler sign his cigarette burn. That would probably be the only guitar in existence with those two signatures, and that’s a couple of heavyweight signatures.

[@ricksaint2000]

Thank you Gary & Otis

[@julesotis13]

Hoss I was just high and scared ...another one I'm keeping thanks

[@clovergrass9439]

That Tele has some stories.

[@James-p8u]

Thanks again Otis 😊

[@dlmyrs]

Thanks, Otis and Gary. Beautiful story.

[@droo714]

What a great interview with a stand-up guy! Really enjoyed his stories!!

[@charlieroth4207]

Waylon's Buckle Rash..lol ..another good one Otis

[@paulofreire7520]

Awesome 👍🏻

[@jda6669]

Tadeo Gomez is man who signed that old Tele, among the best made...such awesome stories of and by such awesome people. Thank you.

[@someoneelse293]

Yeah Gary

[@teddhopkins6283]

Great talk and insightful too

[@becarefulwithafool5019]

How awesome he had it signed 😎

[@jesusislukeskywalker4294]

🙏 peace and love

[@artemisXsidecross]

Drugs may do things detrimental to your health, but a befuddled mind is not one. Song writers take things as they are and write a tune.

[@nicknormando4220]

Merle proclaimed amphetamines helped him greatly in the 60s creativity wise. I agree lol

[@arottie4097]

W0W!

[@gtrdd]

That’s not a ‘56 with that black guard, unless it was changed. Early 1954 or before - $$$$

[@musicofanatic]

Right, would have a white 'guard in '56. Too bad about the 6 saddle bridge, but...given to him by Jennings...man, what a prize to own!!

[@jasonmorris3533]

It was blow not pills

[@Bill-cv1xu]

Waylon busted for drugs? 😂

[@urbangorilla33]

He was framed!

[@PorchHonkey]

One day the mountain might get him. But the law never will!

[@shanewoods1980]

Can’t charge him for something that was already gone!! 🚽

[@LeftyGunns-hk3be]

I think to be true country singer you should have to play in shit bars for few years bar fights some time of hardcore addiction when the best songs are written
