Ash is a popular wood used in electric guitar bodies, prized for its bright tone, snappy attack, and resonant sustain. It comes in two main types: northern (hard) ash, which is denser and delivers a sharper, more pronounced sound, and swamp (soft) ash, known for its lighter weight and slightly warmer tone. Ash often features beautiful, open grain patterns, making it a favourite for transparent finishes like sunburst or natural. Tonally, it’s great for clarity and articulation—perfect for funk, country, and clean blues styles—though it’s also versatile enough for rock and beyond.
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.
Swamp ash is a lightweight tonewood commonly used for electric guitar bodies, especially by brands like Fender. It is prized for its bright, balanced sound with strong mids and a slightly scooped low end, giving guitars a snappy, punchy tone that cuts through a mix. The wood’s light weight also makes instruments comfortable to play for long periods. Visually, swamp ash often features an attractive grain pattern that looks great with translucent finishes, making it a popular choice for both tone and aesthetics.
