Back when Shania Twain was really big and touring she ordered a shiny new custom made Ovation. Not sure of the model. Anyway the crew down at Mother toiled and toiled, put all their heart and soul into building a hottie for a hottie. The guitar gets shipped out and a couple a weeks later she ships it back. The reason she returned it....
It didn't match the color of her shoes! Talk about making a few folks angry!

I could be wrong, but I think it was a Viper.

Dan Schaffer can probably shed some light on this. He played Vipers when he was playing for her.
