Historically, guitars have been manufactured from a rather narrow selection of what luthiers and builders describe as "tone woods". Of course, there are exceptions to the rule, but the majority of guitars and basses are manufactured from a few tried and true woods. There are many characteristics that make certain woods more desirable for guitar construction, including weight, density, stability, appearance, etc.
 
Alder is the classic Fender body wood. Though other woods, like Ash have been commonly used by Fender, Alder has been used since the very beginning, and is considered by many to embody the standard Fender sound. Alder is fairly light in weight and produces a full bodied tone with mellow highs. (If you are not a registered user on Ebay, click the Ebay button and signup for free and place your bids.)
