i know little about guitars and i'm starting out, so i'm thinking of getting either of these:
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B008F4URXI/ (squier affiny strat)
or
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00A6D50L0/ (epiphone les paul)
i mainly want to play 60's/70's rock like pink floyd
If you already know how to play, I'd recommend going to a local guitar store or somewhere you could get your hands on one of these and try both out and see which works best for you. If you can't do that, then just read up on a few reviews to see what people's gripes and praises are. I'd go for something with a comfortable feel (although completely up to each person), something with a good tone, something well made (or as well made as possible for the price), and something with just overall quality. You could also look at second hand gear at some pawn shops. However you'd just need to be careful as not all of it is quality stuff. Bottom line, you don't wanna start out on an
absolute stuff guitar because it will eventually hinder your progress as a player until you can upgrade, which may not be for a few years.
Here's my pride and joy the day I got her
