she's 14, right?...then she'll either get into it and love it or walk away in a short time........I know you don't wanna sell her short, but what about getting something really fun and inexpensive (that if she really gets into, then you can get something better later) that won't break your bank but looks great, plays well?
My cousin has a Kramer Focus (strat style)...the neck is super good, the whammy bar is totally awful...unscrew it and forget about it....the neck is for real, nice rosewood, too on the fretboard, but the body is a composite (which will last, but won't give that wonderful sustain we all want when we get into these things)......for $79 you can get an axe....for $165.99 she can have a tuner, amp, gigbag.....AND the guitar.....
Indonesian made, I think......maybe some are Korean....
I've played my cousin's and it's very very adequate, and he's pushing fifty years old, a non serious fairly good guitar player into blues......the single coils sound really nice on this strat copy....
check it out, this is the site...look at the Focus series and/or Packs.........gibs
