Hey.. Um, Im kind of getting my christmas list together so my mom can send it around or whatever, and an electric guitar would be nice. I already have an Ibanez Artwood 100 (acoustic), but I wanted a really cheap electric to just fool around with.. not to mention i've run out of ideas 
What I'm thinking is a cheap ($100) guitar package, with an AMP and I would like a cable too(
)...
OR maybe I should just go with a cheap amp and an acoustic soundhole pickup for my current guitar?
Ok, I know nothing about guitars and I dont know what the hell a 'single coil' or 'humbucking' pickup is, whats better. I have found 3 packages worth considering.
The first two I am confused which one is better, or maybe neither is better, they just have a different sound. They are both the same price, same amp, but one has a higher model number and says it comes with a bridge humbucking pickup, but it has a lower rating? They come with cheap 20 dollar practice AMPs.
S101
S102
The S102 doesnt have a description but I looked up and I found the same guitar for sale by itself: The S102 comes fully equipped with 2 sweet single-coil pickups, a bridge humbucking pickup for thick sustain, and 5-way switching for tone to the bone. Classic body and neck styling plus standard tremolo offer the looks, feel, and playability of guitars costing much more.
And then I just found this other guitar package, that comes with a 50 dollar amp, and it looks like the same guitar as the S101.. and comes with picks, guitar strap, cable, a gig bag, and a guide for the guitar and an instruction manual for the amp. This seems like a nicer deal.. but the only downside is.. IT COSTS 10 MORE DOLLARS THAN THE OTHERS!!!
Man $10 is alot of money thats like 3 burger king runs
Anyway here is the link: http://www.americanmusical.com/item....em=BEH+GPACKBK
and here is the manufacturers link (has more info on the guitar): http://www.behringer.com/02_products...-Pack&lang=eng
Now for my question. Which guitar should I get, and why. If I shouldnt get this guitar, then what should I get? If I put I only want money for christmas down, like I did last time, then I get $100 and a bunch of worthless crap because my parents feel bad that I dont get presents.
Also, if not this, are Acoustic soundhole pickups worth the money? Why or why not?
Thanks, and if you have any better deals around the $100 range, PLEASSSSEE post them!
Oh and I'll have been playing guitar for 5.5 months around christmas time... thats why im such a nub.. I've never touched an electric guitar besides my older brother's, that he got at a pawn shop, and my friend's..
