That is indeed "Viserion", twin dragon to Phil's "Khaleesi". I'm pretty sure there are a couple pictures of it in the NorCal Gathering X thread from Spring, 2017. My Custom fretless made her debut at that one too, and is only a few serial numbers newer.

Things need to lign up, good things come to those who have the patience, and you need to put your mind to it. And yes, coherency is a good thing.

If PCH shows up at my door tomorrow I just might have room for that 6’er.

Nah.. I would most likely go for a custom build.
