Default Norwegian/European spruce

Just wondering how common is European spruce used for top wood? And does it matter what part of the world it comes from? I just did a little research that says that at one time European and Norwegian spruce were considered to be different species or sub species I guess. But people who assign taxonomical names have now merged the two together as Picea abies. I love my giant Norwegian Spruce that sits next to my driveway. It is also loved by many species of song birds that use it for shelter. But someday I will need to cut down that lovely tree as it encroaches more and more over my driveway and house. Does an American grown Norwegian spruce have any value for top wood?
