Hans Conried guest stars as pompous concert violinist Sebastian Stromboli. At first, the Great Stromboli refuses when Jed asks him to give violin lessons to Jethro. But when Jed dangles a 20,000-dollar retainer before Stromboli, the fussy fiddler immediately changes his tune. Comedian Foster Brooks, aka "The Lovable Lush," is cast as Fiddlin' Sam (a character not unlike those Brooks used to play when he was an all-purpose TV personality in Louisville, KY). "The Clampetts Fiddle Around" originally aired on February 28, 1968.
