Don't think I've seen an all Spruce guitar before.

Here's one that the player, who works at that same store, thinks is the best guitar he's ever played; and I think sounds pretty good.

It's a Ken Walker.  The notes below the video are pretty interesting, and include remarks from Ken Walker as well.  He worked for George Gruhn and Guild Guitars.

A trip to Dream Guitars would be very educational. Those folks aren't very far from you I don't think, probably an easy day trip. That Honduran rosewood guitar has some charm. 

Kim Walker has quite the reputation. I feel like we've discussed him somewhere here at the Club?

Up in Weaverville, and yes, they have a lot of nice stuff; all of it out of my price range.  Visits to their store are by appointment only, and I wouldn't want to waste their time.  I'm still studying acoustics that are more my price range; and really, I need to improve my playing significantly so that I have a better idea of what I really want in an acoustic.

I can only (ahem) dream of spending 0.01% of the time there that I spend listening to their demo videos; very few pieces that I wouldn't like to take home - and none that I could come close to.
