Virtuoso No. 3 is a 1977 (see 1977 in music) album by American jazz guitarist Joe Pass. It was re-issued in 1992 on CD by Original Jazz Classics.

Virtuoso No. 3 differs from Virtuoso and Virtuoso No. 2 in that it contains all original material instead of jazz standards. The track "Paco de Lucia" is named after the noted flamenco composer and guitarist.

In his Allmusic review, critic Scott Yanow wrote "There are more ballads than usual in a Pass solo showcase, but there is enough variety to hold one's interest..."

All songs by Joe Pass.
