1994 PRS Dragon III Limited Edition #71 of 100 – Scarlet Red – Dead Mint – Original Dragon Pickups – 8.3 LBS
There are rare guitars… and then there are guitars that make grown collectors suddenly remember they “have a spare retirement account.” This is one of those.
Meet Dragon III #71 of only 100 produced in 1994. If you’ve been waiting for one that hasn’t been played to death, modified, relic’d, “artistically enhanced,” or stored in a damp basement next to Uncle Larry’s bowling trophies… congratulations. Your search is officially over.
The Scarlet Red finish is absolutely mesmerizing, the flame top glows from every angle, and the legendary Dragon inlay is simply breathtaking. Pictures don’t do it justice—they just file a formal complaint for being inadequate.
Better yet, this one still has the factory Dragon Treble & Dragon Bass pickups, the pickups collectors actually want in a Dragon III. They sound every bit as fierce as the fingerboard looks.

Condition & Included Items
This Dragon III is in exceptional, collector-grade condition. After an extremely thorough inspection, I simply cannot find any flaws worth mentioning. The finish is gorgeous, the hardware presents beautifully, the fingerboard artwork remains absolutely stunning, and the guitar has clearly lived a very pampered life.
It includes the original PRS leather Artist case, which is also in excellent condition.
Please note that the original case candy and certificate are not included. While that may matter to the most obsessive museum-level collector, the guitar itself is so clean and original that it more than speaks for itself.
If you’ve been waiting for a Dragon III that checks nearly every box—original pickups, original finish, beautiful top, pristine condition, desirable Scarlet Red finish, and one of only 100 ever made—this is the one that deserves serious consideration.
Just be warned… once you open the case, every other guitar in the room may suddenly look like it forgot to dress for the occasion.
Whoever brings this baby home is gonna be STOKED!!
LET’S GO!!
