Two Under-$200 Electric Guitars That Offer A Lot Of Guitar For The Money

If you are thinking about getting an electric guitar and don't want to break the bank, there are a ton options these days under $200. Here are two guitars that are easy on the wallet and offer a lot of guitar for beginners and seasoned guitarists as well.

The Squier Affinity Telecaster is an exact copy of the Fender Telecaster. It's made in Taiwan and is getting great reviews from long-time guitar players. The cost point is at the under $200 range, which means you get a lot of guitar for your money. This Telecaster has two humbucker pickups and a three-way switch. One for the pickup near the neck, one for the pickup near the bridge, and one for in-between.

Most beginner guitarists will be disappointed that the Telecaster does not have a "whammy bar" or tremolo, you know, the little bar that when pressed, changes the sound of the note or chord you are playing to a higher or lower pitch. Well, that is a good thing. Most tremolos on low-end guitars tend to throw the guitar out of tune. With the Telecaster, this isn't a problem.

If the Tele isn't doesn't get you excited, another good choice is the Yamaha PAC012DLX Pacifica HSS Deluxe.

The Yamaha PAC012DLX Pacifica HSS Deluxe sports a Stratocaster style body, very sculpted and curvy. Like the Squier Affinity Telecaster, the Pacifica is made in Taiwan. The Pacifica has 22 frets, three single-coil pickups and a five-way switch to move between the pickups, just like a Fender Stratocaster.

Both of these guitars are great starter guitars, or for experienced guitarists who need an excellent practice guitar or backup guitar for gigs.

Where can I buy one? The best place to buy either guitar is your local guitar store. There you'll have an opportunity to see how it feels in your hands. Plug it in and give it a test drive.
