hello all, i'm looking for some advice on buying an electric guitar.
i'm leaning towards a strat style guitar possibly some type of Ibanez. have been checking out some Tokai strats too. my budget unfortunately is £300.
i'd really like this guitar to be quite versitile as i'd like to use it for palm muting - rock/metal sounds but also sweet clean tones, a bit of twang & minimal hum. i'm not asking much ;)

any input is appreciated
 
You can get a nice used Ibanez RG on Ebay for around £300 - at some stage in the future you can swap out the stock pickups.
 
+1 for those 2 options - you'll get much more guitar for the same money. They are both great quality. Xaviere guitars from Guitar Fetish come with GFS pickups, but Rondo has a bit more choices and their copies resemble the originals more closely.

you can read up on both at agileguitarforum.com

you won't be sorry!

check out www.rondomusic.com as well as www.guitarfetish.com and look at the xaviere line

i would also recommend looking into a guitar with p-90's as they have a good amount of twang but still sound tight when distorted.
 
thanks for all the input, appreciated. regarding the Ibanez RG's , i've been recommended the RG321, anyone here have experience with this model?
