    First Electric Guitar Suggestion

    Hey Guys I am planning to purchase my first electric guitar and amplifier. I have shortlisted the Yamaha RGX 121Z and a Marshall MG15CD. I mostly play classic rock and blues.
    My budget is around 20k(can increase by 1k to 2k only). Is this a good combination or do you have something better.

    Definitely you can do better than the marshall. If you increase your budget a little more you could afford a tube amp like the cub. And you could get a starter guitar like the pacifica.

    i would like a tube amp but i don't like the pacifica. how is fender squier instead of the pacifica or an ibanez grg series.

    can u tell me the model of this fender stratocaster.it was owned by my uncle. it was sold for 19k.

    Squiers and pacificas are almost the same quality. Squier is not the same as a real fender. A mexican strat would cost you more than 30 K and an american made one is above 50 K.

    id suggest the Sammick/Greg Bennett AV1 or AV3.

    as for the amp, i am a roland guy. the cube 15 should do well i guess.
