I can't help you with Andy's guitar style but thought this would be of interest to some. The theme song to the show was written by Earl Hagen and was an instrumental. In the second season, an actor named Everett Sloane apperared on the show as moonshiner Jubal Foster. Sloane was so taken by the show and the characters that he wrote lyrics to Hagen's tune. The song is titled "The Fishin' Hole". Hum the tune and read the lyrics, it is just great.
