    I greatly want to second what @MusicOwl@hexbear.net is saying about getting used instruments, as I do this for two primary reasons:

    1. Cost
    2. Environmental Friendliness

    Contrary to popular belief, a used instrument can serve the job just as well as a new one, alongside the other advantages it has such as the sustainability aspect I mentioned. It's all about finding one that has been taken care of well and doing whatever work with a luthier you can to maintain it once you get it. What MusicOwl said about Fender Teles and Strats is accurate, by the way. As a bassist, Fender Precision and Jazz instruments are highly well-rounded and among some of the most affordable basses, and there is a similar type of dynamic for Fender guitars as well. I and many other stringed instrument players have started off with Fenders. Right now, I'm seeking to, sometime in the near future, get a used yet quite affordable model of a seven-string bass that's no longer in production.

    This depends on the style of music you generally play as well. I am, first and foremost, a progressive metal bassist who has been composing djent and that kind of shit using weird time signatures. I composed a 5/4 lick for guitars that I'm loving the sound of, and I hope to expand it into a beautiful, full-fledged song. What I got in my mind sounds incredible already; I just gotta connect the dots.

    Regardless of genre, though, Fender instruments are incredibly versatile to the point of being found across so many genres. Good luck with your guitar hunt, comrade, and don't be afraid to ask any more questions about any specifics you want to know of in further detail.
