CD reader modelled in wood (3,5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

red cedar

'wood' is the definition.
(red cedar is a kind of wood)

'cd reader modelled' is the wordplay.
'modelled' is an anagram indicator (I've seen 'models' mean this).
'cd'+'reader'='cdreader'
'cdreader' is an anagram of 'RED CEDAR'.

'in' is the link.

I've seen this clue in The Sun and The Times.
