Telecaster and Stratocaster bodies are mostly constructed from alder — a lightweight, closed-pore wood with a resonant, balanced tone that imparts excellent sustain and sharp attack. Ash, mahogany and other tonewoods have also been used.
As for the body silhouettes, both are instantly recognizable. The Tele has a single cutaway and no body contours. In addition to its sleek contours that make it eternally comfortable to play, the Strat has another cutout on the upper horn for better access to the upper notes.
