A body structure of an electric guitar of a solid type is constituted by a body
and a neck, which are firmly joined together using adhesive and/or bolts. An engagement
hollow is formed over the entire length of the back of the body, and an extending
portion is integrally extended from a base portion of the neck with a smoothly
curved portion therebetween. The base portion of the neck is engaged with a rectangular
hollow formed in the front end portion of the body, and the extending portion of
the neck is engaged with the engagement hollow of the back of the body. An adhesive
bank channel is formed in the periphery of the bottom of the engagement hollow
to prevent an excess of adhesive from overflowing and dirtying the backs of the
body and neck when joined together using adhesive.
