Looking for a great guitar in the £200 to £400 range.

Hi there, I’m a beginner and I’m looking for a guitar of high quality that will actually last in factors such as playability, enjoyment etc. Right now I have a guitar kit that cost like £100, knowing that the quality really isn’t the best and already having problems with it is really off putting. Please share your suggestions!

You can't go wrong with a Squier Classic Vibe in that price range, imo. You might want to check those out since they also fit your budget.

do you want a combo or just a guitar? what kind of guitar do you like? stratocaster? telecaster? les paul?

[brave igloo]

Thank you I’ll have a look! 😄

Depends. If its not going to be worth it because of the quality than just a guitar and I’ll probably end up getting an amp separately but preferably both yeah. I’ve never played any.

If I were you I'd get the amp and guitar separately, most sets I know don't offer good quality for their value.

Ah ok thanks for the advice, to be honest I’ll probably be looking towards the lower end of my budget for a guitar then if im also going to get an amp, I imagine those are also pretty expensive. Working on getting my driving license right now as well so im trying to save for both.

get the fender mustang LT25 as your amp, and the ibanez AZES as your guitar https://www.guitarcenter.com/Ibanez/AZ-Essentials-Electric-Guitar-Mint-Green-1500000357059.gc?storeCode=&source=4WWRWXGL If you wanted to increase your budget, the choices would be very different, this is just if you specifcally had a tighter budget

Squier Sonic Tele is pretty good

Grab a used Fender Player Series Telecaster

Got it a few months ago and had to make a couple repair but it's by far my favorite guitar now

[weak kettle]

Player series isnt worth the money, classic vibe is much better

if you even get a sqier

get a Sire T7 or S7

T7 is telecaster and S7 is strat
