Please CLICK HERE for our NEW ALDER BODY BLANK INVENTORY

Alder - Alder is popular as a material for electric guitar bodies. It’s a medium weight wood used by many guitar makers. Alder provides a brighter tone than other woods (such as mahogany), and as alder is not a particularly dense wood it provides a resonant, full bodied sound with decent sustain.

We have over a hundred alder body blanks in stock and are happy to provide custom sizes.  Please CONTACT US if you need a custom size body blank.

Although guitar headplates are most often selected because they are aesthetically pleasing, they also serve a functional purpose of reinforcing the scarf joint (where the neck and the headstock are joined).

Most of our headplates match the guitar drop tops that we sell, so you should be able to find a pretty close match.

If you don’t see one that will work with your top set, or if you need a different size or thickness, let us know and we’ll do our best to find a close match for you.
