Oh no, chipboard is pretty heavy.
70s Fenders are part of the reason Tokai existed in the way it did from '79 onwards!
It won't be chipboard Alan, a 70s Tele is probably some very heavy ash, & probably not a wonderful guitar. Give me an 80s Tokai Strat or Tele over a 70s Fender any day of the week, no contest. Why anybody buys 70s Fenders is quite beyond me.
Having said that about chipboard, one of the heaviest Strats I've had was an early 90s MIJ Squier - and that was plywood! :-?
