What's great about it: Finish, price, sound
What's not so great: Required professional set-up to lower action.
I have been coveting this guitar for a year or so. The price appeared to be pretty dialed in at $1099 everywhere. When I saw this baby at Best Buy for $824 I thought it was a misprint. I immediately ordered and received it less than a week later.
The finish is flawless. It doesn't come with a pick guard but doesn't bother me. I knew the nut width was a little wider to accomodate fingerpicking. This will take me a little while to get used to. The tone is sweet and has a better lower register than I had been led to believe I would get with the Taylor. Although I had been told that the set-up out of the box on Taylor is usually very good, in this case the action was too high. I am having the guitar professional set up by our local Guitar Czar who commented that the action was indeed too high but could be easily fixed. He confirmed that I had chosen a beautiful sounding guitar.

What's great about it: Beautiful Sound & it's quality (Made in U.S.A.)
What's not so great: Only two in stock in some store, one is the display & one is new in the box
Just got my new DN3 in the box & It is really a very nice quality guitar. Solid feel, smooth to slide & beautiful sound not like a tin can sound of Martin at this price range. Lots of bracings that supports the inside of the guitar & it comes with a hard case with Taylor logo made of steel chrome plated. Solid wood not laminate >>> & Made in U.S.A. !!!

What's great about it: Excellent quality, great sound, easy playability
What's not so great: Nothing major. Would have been nice to have a pick guard
This is my second guitar and as such was an upgrade. I love playing this thing and it definately sounds good. It feels good in my hands. I am a beginner an I appreciate how the neck and fretboard feel. It actually makes it easy to find my way around the stings and hit the notes. If you are looking for something in the $700-1500 price range I would suggest trying out the Taylor DN3. You won't be dissapointed.

What's great about it: Playability, sound, simplicity.
What's not so great: Delicate finish on soundboard.... no pickguard.
I just recently purchased this guitar from Best Buy. I own several nice guitars... 75 Gibson LP Custom, 95 Fender American Standard Strat, Epi Sheraton II, Tak Acoustic, a few others. This is the best made guitar of any of these. I can pound on this thing and get a booming sound, fingerpick crisp mids and highs, very versatile. Much better bottom than GA and other body style Taylors. The DN still has nice crisp Taylor highs (much nicer than Martin D18 or D28), but also gives a solid bottom (much like Martins). It stays in tune forever! I love this guitar... I can't put it down.... I will never part with this guitar. it's an 11 out of 10. And the people at the Best Buy in Laredo, TX are the best. Don't even bother going to GC... just go see the guys at Best Buy... They'll do you right. Bottom line, if you're looking for all the acoustic guitar you can get in the $1,000-$2,000 range, the DN3 is it, Buy it! You won't regret it.
