I'm ready to brace a red spruce top and i was using red spruce bracewood, but i messed up the X brace and all I have to use now is sitka bracewood. Would it be the wrong thing to do if I used the sitka on a red spruce top? Thanks, Steve |

The guitar I'm building has a red spruce top and sitka braces. |
