Gunsmoke presents “The Guitar Reused Script,” episode 308, originally broadcast March 2, 1958. This local archival recording revisits a story first heard as “The Guitar” in 1953, written by John Meston and produced for CBS by Norman Macdonnell.
In Dodge City, a gentle, impoverished drifter arrives on a mule with a guitar he refuses to play. His quiet manner and Union past draw the attention of hostile former Confederates, leaving Marshal Matt Dillon and the town regulars to weigh how best to protect a vulnerable outsider. William Conrad stars as Dillon, with Parley Baer, Howard McNear, and Georgia Ellis.
Gunsmoke presents the original broadcast with a newly produced contextual introduction, a short closing announcement, and gently cleaned/mastered audio for a more consistent listening experience.
