not sure, but I think most solid colors are alder and transparent colors that show the wood grain are ash, unless solid color is spec'ed as ash. I couldn't find specs on your guitar. Pic might help others on the forum in the know. Good luck, Dutch. :)

Serial and model number is useless to us. That info might be better to email to Fender customer service and they can look in their records about the specs of your particular guitar.

We really would need to see pics and make an educated guess. Like Dutchy said, if it's a solid color it's probably alder. Transparent finish probably ash. But then again, Fender sometimes used poplar during the 90's even for US guitars, and some sunburts even have a veneer. Please post a pic.
