that site is a god for cheap guitars.

Well you've got plenty of time to win them round. :)
Sorry I can't recommend anything.

lol i thought that was a poem at first :p

the more you pay=the better the quality of the sound imho. ofcourse you have to have good amps too

Well, does your college do guitar lessons or anything like that? Mine does, so i'm guessing other colleges do to, just wait till then, and you'll have a reason to get one, and then maybe your parents will buy one?

I have a strat. There's some great ones out there, but since youre going to have to wait till christmas, I'd get an accoustic until then. A cheap one, doesnt need to be great. It'll get your fingers ready, because accoustics are harder to play than electric.

Since your waiting until christmas to get a guitar,
why not look for lessons at college/school or elsewhere to
get you ready for your guitar.

Yeap as redstrat said, play the acoustic first, rent one or somthing, I played acoustic for a year before going onto electric, moves alot of techniques onto the electric.

I have a Gibson Epiphone Les Paul = my baby <3 :p

Guitar Center usually has a lot of good deals going on, and alot of deals around the Holiday season so, check there.

If you want something cheap w/ a few extra's i'd reccommend this

Yeah, I played this really old accoustic for a few monthes before getting an electric, and once I got an electric I was like "wow, this is so much easier".
