Beginner guitar

[Schiffer]

Hey guys. I am wanting to learn electric guitar and need some suggestions on guitars. Do you guys like recommend beginner guitar packs? I really want a good beginner guitar to help me learn better. Budget should be below 500 bucks. Thanks

nah the packs i dont recommend.the amps that come with usually is a sloppy one imo.
Hmm.well ill recommend the roland cube 15x.has onboard effects.(save on pedals whee!) cost about 176 at sweelee?
Hmm guitar wise,what kind of songs you play?

I always reconmend a Squier Strat California Series as a pretty decent starter guitar.
Firstly, because its Squier, which is owned by Fender. That gives you assurance that the guitar you're buying is of relatively good, if not decent quality, for the money that you're paying.
Fender doesn't hide the fact that Squier produces cheaper versions of its more expensive Fenders. You can find a reference on the guitar itself. If its of bad quality, Fender has much to lose
Secondly, its relatively cheap. Its is about $300, although many shops will sell it for $280
Thirdly, its relatively versatile, but only the CALIFORNIA SERIES. It has two single-coils and a humbucker at the bridge. I use my own Squier to play everything to Muse, Radiohead, Anberlin and Avenged Sevenfold (to name a few) and with a little bit of tweaking of guitar and amp settings, I can easily achieve the sound I want.

Anyway, amp wise its adviceable to get a Roland Cube. The Cube has its own effects. It may not give you a lot of freedom in varying your effects, but for a beginner it is relatively good enough already.

My two cents

The guys are right,go for a Roland Cube 15x or a 20x if you're willing to spend the money.Guitar wise,Squiers are good beginner guitars,really nice tones compared to the other guitars at its price range.The Ibanez GRX20 is a good buy too,i used that guitar when i first started out,HH combination,should be good for the stuff you're playing.These are the two guitars i would recommend.Also,i think that it's best not to get a beginner pack as it will not fit you as you advance,and few people would want to buy a used beginner pack.In my opinion though.
