Aloha everyone! I just saw someone asking about Adi, and I'm currently looking for Italian Spruce. This is for my next build. Gonna be matched with some pretty old Brazilian Rosewood. I know about the Alpine variety, but I was wondering if is there is a supply for 'true' Italian (stradivarius) spruce. Mahalo guys!
