I was hoping some people here can help me out with a question. I have to decided to get a guitar and went to a few guitar stores today to get an idea on what i want. My options are few because i play lefty, but one store had a MIM fender strat. I have no idea how to play it, but love the feel, the sound, just everything.

I am watching ebay like a hawk now and have come across the 'squier' stratocastor. As i mentioned before, i know nothing about guitars other than squier is a subdivision of fender and just wondering if the feel would be any different then the 'mexi-lefty', as the worker at the store called it, and if it would be better to buy the squier if there are no real drawbacks, or if the true fender would last me longer before needing to upgrade.
Thanks in advance!


Strat58cat's suggestion about the acoustic electric guitar is great advice if you concider that you will have to subtract the cost of an amp and cables from your $350.00 budget by as much as or more than $100.00 depending on the sound you might be wanting to capture. Plus learning on an acoustic will strengthen your fingers making stepping up to electric easier down the road. Going from electric first then acoustic isn't as easy.
