Pro Series 3 is one of seven basic tiers of the Pro Series range. The tiers are named 1 through 7, with 1 being the lowest (still higher than any G range models) and 7 being the top one. Pro Series 3 models represent the lower intermediate level of the Pro Series. CP3DC-OV starts off with a single-cut dreadnought body, glued-in neck, in-house electronics, and pretty conservative styling. Gloss Natural is the only available color option (multi-ply binding, gold-plated hardware, abalone dot inlays, abalone rosette). Main construction features include ovangkol back & sides (solid back, laminated sides), solid spruce top, solid mahogany neck, and bound rosewood fingerboard (20 frets, 1.68" nut). Electronics section sports the top-grade Palathetic pickup/CTP-3 preamp (w/tuner) system.
