Default Clarence White/Tony Rice D-28?

Has anyone heard or know what the disposition of the White/Rice famed D-28 is after Tony's passing? I'd be curious to know where it ends up.

There is a thread about this on the Martin Guitar forum. A couple folks that knew Tony say that Tony's intent was for the D-28 to go to his brother Wyatt.

I just assumed that Wyatt would have it, at least initially.

I hope it ends up at the Martin museum one day. It is a true piece of art and history!

It needs to be played regularly, but I agree it needs to be rested and preserved. That poor guitar has gone through hell!

I hope Wyatt gets it. Heck, I hope any good player gets it. I just don't want it going into some finance bro's collection.
