My first guitar
This guitar can do it all. Jazz, rock, metal. It's a step up from what would be considered "budget" LP's, it's a set neck and there's grover tuners. The pots on mine are a little shaky, but I haven't gotten around to fixing them. The controls are straight forward, 2 volume, 2 tone, 3-way pickup selector. My string preference for this is currently Ernie Ball Power Slinky.
Great amp for the money!
This amp was recommended to me by a teacher at my high school. In terms of power, it's plenty loud to play clubs. The clean tone is great and the overdrive channel breaks up beautifully. It's also versatile in that it can change the impedance to accommodate different cabs (4, 8, or 16 ohms). Different configurations are listed in the manual and tell you what the impedance should be set at based upon the speaker setup. There's also an effects loop and an included foot switch, controlling the channel and toggling reverb. The reverb is digital, which doesn't bother me, and it can get really intense if you're going for that surf rock tone. Racking in at $400, this amp cannot be beat for someone who is looking for another amp to the collection or looking to upgrade from a solid state amp to something with better tone.
