Full large sound with subtle sustaining overtones.

I'm very pleased with the tonalities and projection of this guitar. There are sustaining chiming overtones, slightly different from Englemann spruce's ones, though there's also the same robust thick sounding B string that the latter wood gives.
My preference is for a 12-53 string set with a 0.022 gauge G string instead of a 0.024 as for me it matches the tensions of the top two strings much better than the large tension increment of 0.016 to 0.024 ( the D'Addario string packs show these figures ).
What's gained are noticeably quicker and more even sounds, and when looking at an electric 10-46 string set it's clear that the tension variation between the B and G is much less than on a 12-53 acoustic set's B and G. As a fingerstyle player it suits me though strummers may prefer a thicker G string.
A very cohesive full sound and surprising from the small body. I'm very glad to have this introduction to Adirondack spruce and the quality of construction etc.
