Reading time: 4 minutes --- ![electric guitar body styles](https://blog.minelligroup.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Blog-images/03-The%20latest%20electric%20guitar%20body%20styles%20to%20beat%20the%20competition-Blog.jpg?width=1201&name=03-The%20latest%20electric%20guitar%20body%20styles%20to%20beat%20the%20competition-Blog.jpg)To stay ahead of competitors in the electric guitars market, you should offer top-quality bodies and necks and make sure your clients receive them on time without problems or delays. Therefore, you need an experienced manufacturer that can create the best electric guitar body styles and send them quickly to let you start selling them as scheduled. How to achieve this goal? Let’s discuss the topic in the following article. ## Electric guitar body styles: why customization is essential Many guitar bodies are available that differ in overall shape, design, style, and type of [wood](https://blog.minelligroup.com/wood-manufacturing/custom-made-wood-products-sustainability) used. What you want to offer in your catalogue would certainly be aesthetic, but it should also be practical. The first point you should consider is that there is not an ideal [electric guitar body](https://blog.minelligroup.com/wood-manufacturing/electric-guitar-body-choosing-manufacturer) that fits all players. It depends on their preferences in terms of shape and sound. Many players, for example, look for a certain sound, and they concentrate their search around guitars that have shapes that will likely produce this sound. Two main factors can affect the sound of an electric guitar: - shape of the body - wood used The body shape affects how resonant the tone is: if the inside area of the body is large and wide, the sound will be louder and deeper. The [shape of the neck](https://blog.minelligroup.com/wood-manufacturing/perfect-electric-guitar-neck) is important, too, as it affects how the guitar feels, how comfortable it is to play, its sound, and also how it looks. Then, different types of wood have distinguishable characteristics that affect the tone of the guitar, which is why they are called *tonewoods*. It is essential that [the manufacturer you select](https://blog.minelligroup.com/wood-manufacturing/electric-guitar-body-choosing-manufacturer) can customize the electric guitar body and neck according to your client’s requests, needs, and preferences in terms of shape, design, and wood used. ![electric guitar body styles](https://blog.minelligroup.com/hubfs/Immagini/Chitarre/guitar-20-min.jpg) ![electric guitar body styles](https://blog.minelligroup.com/hubfs/Immagini/Chitarre/guitar-18-min.jpg) [![Rely on a competent manufacturer pf wooden electric guitar bodies and necks: download the free whitepaper!](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/6067228/interactive-161617517934.png)](https://blog.minelligroup.com/hs/cta/wi/redirect?encryptedPayload=AVxigLKUN6KV4uLjs5srKGPxLXE60OD6HWF7C1a%2Fygt7ONO6Zf84NohBa8ZYOP0eZRRVDOMZQBU3YRiAxO2pdmDxdvJmGtFYWbd3Bp%2FfhRXc7%2BbPu5gUXHD4ENp6NaZyVJ5IjQKPyQsSm0ZpMKBL3aaL3VbsgKcpj3Xtbz3Q7H4xse2nDWMgSpdzH2mxsfb496Yju%2BBUtl42Ghc0uCB%2BUYTjUX52Hc7pmL%2FJ&webInteractiveContentId=161617517934&portalId=6067228) Therefore, it must be able to simulate even the most difficult drawing without disturbing the concept and general feeling of the original design. This could mean creating complicated shapes, doing something that nobody has done before, and finding solutions to meet even the most demanding requirements. #### Electric guitars are not just objects for many players For many people, their guitar is something they really enjoy. It must be unique and adapt to the owner’s physical and aesthetic requirements. The guitar’s finish is also very important, as appearance is part of its utility. You should be able to offer different electric guitar body styles in line with the specific image players want to convey. Here are some examples of the most sought-after designs: Only an experienced team specialized in the timber sector has the competency and tools to create such difficult designs, maintaining the highest standards of durability, resistance, and functionality. #### How to choose a reliable supplier Besides being able to create complicated shapes and designs and offer a wide range of [finishing and customization options](https://blog.minelligroup.com/wood-manufacturing/wood-product-manufacturing-focus-on-unique-finishes-precision), a competent supplier respects deadlines and sends your products as scheduled. You will then be able to satisfy your clients’ requests and be successful in the market. Today, with the supply chain crisis due to the Covid-19 pandemic, many clients must wait even six or seven months to receive their guitar, causing inconvenience and issues with compliance. In the U.S., for example, container ships—mostly from Asia—must wait to dock sometimes for as long as three weeks, as ports are congested. Therefore, companies that rely especially on China for electric guitar components are now suffering delays and debilitating supply chain shortages. The solution is finding a supplier in your own country to: - shorten lead time - avoid risks & delays - increase your competitiveness Choosing a [European or US supplier](https://blog.minelligroup.com/wood-manufacturing/how-to-select-a-custom-wood-products-manufacturer) will let you avoid uncertainty and delays that could affect your commercial activities and satisfy your clients’ expectations. You won’t have to deal with distance, which can be a major problem for communication, especially during the design phase when you need to cooperate closely with your partner, who should be able to help you satisfy your and your clients’ ideas. Moreover, a leading U.S. or European manufacturing company can rely on decades of strong relationships and collaboration with the world’s leading producers of wood finishing materials, e.g., oils, paints, lacquers, and resins, so that it can offer a [wide range of finish options](https://minelligroup.com/unique-finishing/). --- [The Minelli Group](https://minelligroup.com/) and subsidiary Minelli USA have manufactured wooden components for the OEM market for more than 80 years.
