My budget is $300, but I'm looking at used guitars, so in new guitar terms, something around $500

I want a whammy bar but not a floyd rose. I'm not really familiar with the different versions but I think what I want is called a floating trem.

Preferably, I'd like a guitar with 24 frets, but 22 also works.

Rn my only electric is a cheap $100 telecaster, which is fine but after 2 years it;s already getting bad. I also don't like the boxy-ish shape. I want something with contours but not like an Ibanez RGA that looks insanely aggressive (but the shape doesn't matter as much to me as the other stuff)

I also don't really care about tone. I have a multi-effects pedal (Mooer ge150) so I can really make any sound I want.

Lastly, I prefer guitars with slidey necks so I can slide my fingers around but this also doesn't matter that much.

I play rock (queen, guns n roses, ac/dc), and i also play some jazz/blues. thought that would be good to let you guys know.

thanks in advance for any recommendations.

btw, some of the guitars im currently looking at are some of the cheapest ibanez, squier affinity strats, and yamaha pacifica
