I know casting must have had a hard time finding a person who could sing as well as Jim Nabors and then lose a coin flip. Unfortunately they failed here because even though Gomer's friend could sing no one would say that it was a tie. Jim Nabor's voice was special. It has such depth of sound and power. The other guy had a decent voice but not special. Matter fact Mayberry had several better vocalists. Gomer, Rafe Hollister,and Glen Cripe.
