The Engelmann is also known as white, European or German spruce, but they are technically different. Generally they are visually distinguished from Sitka because of its creamy texture. Engelmann tree are so small and bent these days that there is a good quantity of them that surface is not parallel and, as a result, tops are not very symmetric. Regarding the sound, Engelmann tops have a mature sound and largely richer than Stika.

That’s why they’re a good option for guitarist who need a richer and complex sound than usual, specially when the instrument it’s softly played.
