Standard strat or standard Telecaster, if you're into single-coil sounds.
Or... Ibanez AX guitar if you're into humbucker tone.
Those are the good ones on the cheap imho.
FWIW I don't own a single electric guitar for which I PAID more than about $350,
however with vintage and with mods some of them are definitely WORTH more than
that. This is to say a $350 guitar, if well-chosen, can be more than enough
guitar. More money spent on electric guitars may not necessarily reflect better
functionality.
