   I got a starter pack for $200 which included a Squier by Fender Stratocaster, a small amp, a bag, and a lot of other stuff. It was really good for a beginner and i still use it over a year later

   there’s a bunch of eginner packs at:

   You can get beginner electric guitar packs for around $150 to $300 with an amp, bag, picks etc. from brands like monterey and johnson but the strings on those brands get rusty too quickly and you end up having to pay $10 to $15 on a new set of strings. There’s an electric guitar for just past the beginner stage and is an alternative to buying those big brands (Gibson, Fender etc.). Brands like Electa are just as good as having something like a Les Paul and come in that rounded body shape and the strings take a lot longer to rust. They cost around $400 to $500 and just need a small amp, something like a Line 6, Kustom or Drive amp ($200 less).

   I would suggest getting an Electa only if you are willing enough to go all the way with electric guitar and not backing out and quiting.

   You can get these starter kits from stores like Sound Centre, Kosmic Sound or Just Music in Western Australia (I don’t know if you know or have stores where you live). Just go in store and ask for a beginner kit or a guitar and amp for good value.

   P.S Apparently ESP/LTD aren’t a good value guitar and break easily, my cousin had one and the lead was too loose all the time and the amp ended up making a scratching noise all the time.

   Good Luck with Your Guitar Playing.
