if you where to lift the fretboard up off the guitar you'll see a hollow shaft other than a truss rod which keeps the neck straight and of course the necks wood. Theres that and of course the body of the guitar itself , with a floating tremolo (floyd rose, whammy bar system) its hollow and can echo a lot more.

so sound waves bouncing around inside of the guitar.
