I intend to be a 'committed' beginner.

It probably helps that I know what to look for. I've been able to find some pretty sweet deals on stuff that at least looks usable on paper.

This will be my 'first' guitar:

Looks like a Les Paul!

I am sure they use cheap as hell tuners and other hardware

Oh, of course... But, they'll be playable.

And, for the price, I can't really find anything that piques my interest all that much. This looks playable.

(I can't just use pedals. A new guitar student would not have pedals.)

My next purchase will probably be a multi-effects pedal. I want to eventually get an estimate of what it really costs to get into guitar.

There are some not too bad multi effects pedals for under $100 out there. Zoom ones usually or chinese stuff. What's the difference LoL

I am sure the CNC machining makes them much better than in the past and much more playable
