This is a cool TV segment from the Andy Griffith Show showing young Roland and his late great brother Clarence White. I think Clarence may be playing the old Martin D-28 (with different fretboard) that is now owned by bluegrass legend Tony Rice. I remember when I saw a little blurb in the LA Times (around 1967?) noting Clarence’s death. He was struck by a drunk driver while loading instruments in his car following a gig.
