PRS Dragon III - Tonys Guitars

Paul Reed Smith Dragon III from 1994

 

This guitar was bought at the Dallas Guitar show 2010.

I was looking for something to invest money in and went along to the show in the frame of mind that if I could not get something there then it would be unlikely that i could get a guitar from anywhere on the planet.

Anyway, this one jumped out at me because its very limited, was owned by an ex employee and has never been played - literally. For an investment guitar that's a good thing...

Yes you can see me holding it on these very pages, but that's what I was doing - holding it for a photo shoot...

The Dragon III in my view is one of the best Dragons PRS made and this one has the option of flamed top which makes it even rarer. This guitar is reviewed on this website so check out the guitar there for more info...

  • Similar layout to McCarty Model
  • Dragon II Pickups
  • Flamed Maple option
  • Fixed bridge
  • 22 frets
  • PRS Dragon III Leather Strap
  • PRS Leather case
