Adirondack spruce, or red spruce as it’s sometimes known, is one of our favorite tone woods for use as a guitar top. The stiffness to weight ratio made it the wood of choice during the golden-era of acoustic flat top guitar building, and utilizing it on vintage-inspired guitars, like this Collings Guitars CJ-45 A T, really brings out the quick string response and increased headroom that this tone wood is known for. Check out all the specs and details on this new Collings model over on the website, and check out all of our Adirondack guitars while you’re at it!
