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?
