Hi all, I’ve been fortunate enough to own a 40th Anniversary Dragon Guitar (my first Dragon), and I’m curious to hear from other owners—do you play yours regularly?
Personally, I’ve been adjusting to the fretboard, especially since it doesn’t have inlay markers. I’ve found that when I look down while playing sitting down, the fretboard can feel a bit visually busy (though it’s better when standing up since my sight is at the topside of the fretboard). I guess I'm used to plain regular fretboards. That said, I really love the guitar overall—it’s absolutely stunning, even more so than the pictures in the PRS advertisements. The real-life version isn’t as dark as the pictures online.
As for the feel, I think I still prefer rosewood for the fretboard, but the playability and tone of this guitar are phenomenal. It’s definitely a joy.
I’d love to hear your thoughts—how are you liking the fretboard feel and the overall experience of playing it? I’d also love to know how you maintain your Dragon guitar. Do you have any specific care routines or products you’d recommend to keep it in top shape?
Looking forward to your replies!
