for that price,the floyd wont stay in tune and the guitar might not last very long. sx brand is fine. great for upgrades. alot of those on mudah and some in the lowyat music instrument section

Anyways assuming you're in Msia I don't think it's worth it to pay the shipping cost for a budget guitar. Try CK Music with their Craftsmen guitars, they can be found under RM500.

For a total beginner i would recommend getting a starter pack eg squire/ibanez/epiphone..for the price u pay really bang for the buck..

Agree with fix bridge, x sakit kepala later on... some budget guitarist just go for guitar within range of "affordable" and using interface to connect to pc/laptop for virtual amp and such then slowly upgrade better pickup suit to your playing style.
