im a begginer guitarist and i want to buy an electric guitar what kind should i buy?im looking for good quality and good sound

I do agree with the other person that you should spend $500 if that fits your budget and you are sure you’ll stick with it. If you don’t want to spend that much the Fender Squire Standard Stratocaster is an awesome guitar, at least the one I played was. If you can spend $500 there are many good guitars in that price range, and some crappy ones, but for my money a Mexican Fender is the best deal going. The HSS Mexican Strat is pretty cool also since you get one humbucker and 2 single coil pickups where the standard has 3 single coils

   Depends what kind of music you’re into. For metal, buy a Jackson or a Dean. For Classic Rock, blues, and jazz, buy a les paul or a stratocaster. Telecasters are nice too.

   If you want a hollow /semi hollow body, check out the epiphone sheraton and the epiphone dot.

   Dont be afraid to spend more. It’s less expensive if you spend 500 dollars now than if you buy a 200 dollar guitar and then upgrade to a 500 dollar guitar later.
