Default 27th anniversary all white surprise from wife

Well my wife outdid herself. She found a new white anniversary Marshall and a White Falcon. I guess the special edition of Deliverance makes us even!

Where can I get that special copy of deliverence? My wife is from West Virginia, may be it will work. Congrats on the years, and the amp and guitar are merely icing.

My wife bought me a Black Phoenix for our first anniversary. She's a fine woman, with very good taste.
