Best Answer

Is your question "what are Guitars constructed of now in days"? if so the answer is wood, various metals, steel strings... but it really depends on the type of guitar you have or are asking about.

The basic body and neck of guitars currently made are of wood/tone wood.

Depending on the expense of the guitar, could range from one solid or several pieces glued together of say, mahogany, basswood, poplar, maple or any variety of hardwood. Even plywood.

There are companies using composite materials as Graphite, carbon fiber, ebanol (Bowling ball material) or newly created composite materials as an alternative to wood that will carry and harvest a rich tone from vibration of strings. Many of these guitars are lighter weight than the traditional instrument and may be a bit pricier but as well made.

i.e. Parker guitars, Emerald guitars, Cort and a host of many others.
