I found Sitka spruce a few years ago at M.L. Condon in White Plains, N.Y. As Jay says it was expensive and it does have a wonderful tone if you tap on it. Condon (914-946-4111) advertises in Wooden Boat magazine and their ad says they ship ($$$) anywhere and also that thay have Sitka spruce. I would expect that it would be available through other large speciality lumber dealers.
