Wood varies not only by the species, but by the piece and by whoever is "working" it. Englemann is better suited for less aggressive playing & works well for delicate fingerpicking. Adirondack has what they call "headroom" and can work well for someone who wants it would and is not afraid to whale around a bit to get it. Other spruces tend to come in-between.

But, remember, the species is only part of the equation.
