I write an pick old American made Ovarton guitars . I have two of them one is a 1979 , OVATION CUSTOM LEGEND the other is a 1985 Balladeer-Ovation. I was born in Baton Rouge , and my beat is natural. No one can play it cept me . To me it is easy because I am a Tiger Fan . I have 4 songs a friend wants to pitch , and they all have different chords but they all have one thing in common . The beat , the heart beat of a Tiger Fan . Another friend came over last week a young dude early too mid 20's , a guitar playing fool, he can play any and everything . he was showing off for me , and I was amazed . When he stopped I picked up one of my Ovation girls , let her slide ever so easy on my lap and let her back slide soft and gentle against my belly , and we started to make love right in front of the young guitar pickin fool.Well he dropped his arms between his legs , his mouth dropped open , his eyes never left my hands as they moved across my Ovation baby's neck. he took all he could grabbed up his $3,500 Gibson guitar , and he tried a little rock , then he tried the blues , then he put in a mix of jazz , he was playing some guitar , but always a 1/2 a beat behind ,. He finally put down his guitar and asked , "What are you doing to that guitar ?" I said , "Simple , if you listen you can hear it . The beat of a Tiger fan, you can hear it but you have too be a Tiger fan to play it !! " He asked " What does being a Tiger fan have too do with pickin a guitar , ?" I said "It is a gift from "Mike The Tiger to all of us Tigers fans .It is the heart beat of a Tiger fan " I had to spell it out and say it for him , "Tiger bait,Tiger bait , G-E-A-U-X Tigers Go , Tiger bait,Tiger bait , G-E-A-U-X Tigers Go " i picked up the Ovation girl In a few seconds he said "I hear it !" I said "But you can't play it cause you ain't a Tiger fan " I put this in here to give a few something else to rant and rave about I guess GEAUX TIGERS !!!!!
