Question:

What's the best guitar & amp that I can get for $500 (I'm a beginner)?

What's the best guitar and amplifier in that price range?

I'm a beginner (never played) and I plan on buying an electric guitar and amp. What should I get?

If it helps, I'm looking for quality. I don't want something cheap just because I'm a beginner.

I plan on playing a somewhat large range of music. From Led Zeppelin to Metallica.

The internet has been giving me inconsistent advice. From what I gather, Fender & Epiphone are the biggest names and guitar packs are a bad idea.


Answers:

Biggest names aren't always the best choice. However with the music you plan on playing, I would suggest a guitar with 2 humbuckers such as an Epiphone Les Paul or maybe check out an ESP LTD model. Washburns also make some good entry level guitars. As for an amp goes, if you plan on jamming with a band I would try to get at least 30 preferably 50 watts. You can't go wrong with a Marshall but they can be expensive. I don't know how they sound but a Berhinger might be the best bang for your buck.

With all that said, I've bought some decent gear off of ebay and from pawn shops. Just make sure you look things over, and if you can; take someone with you who knows something about guitars.
