If it looks like a guitar but has 4 strings, it’s probably a bass guitar, a big ukulele, or a guitar with two snapped strings.
Alder is a commonly used tonewood for electric guitar bodies, prized for its balanced, full-bodied sound with clear mids and a slightly warm, rounded tone. It’s relatively lightweight and easy to work with, making it a favourite choice for many manufacturers, including Fender. Alder bodies produce a well-defined sound that works well across a variety of music styles, from rock and blues to pop and jazz. Its smooth grain also takes paint finishes beautifully, contributing to the classic look of many guitars.

The bass guitar is the backbone of many musical styles, delivering the low-end power that holds everything together. Designed to play deep, resonant notes, it typically has four strings—though five- and six-string models are also popular—and comes in both fretted and fretless versions. Bass guitars can be electric or acoustic, with solid or hollow bodies, and are used across genres from rock and funk to jazz and reggae. In this category, you’ll find a wide selection of bass guitars to suit all levels, from beginner to pro, each built to provide great tone, feel, and reliability.
