fender pickups telecaster

I have the choice of either spendin 300$ on an epiphone sg or 350$ on a fender telecaster which one?
which one is the better choice and why. the telecaster is used and has a big scratch tho and instead of a single coil pickup a seymour duncan pickup.
i’d still probably go with the fender
but my suggestion is to save up a little more and buy like an ibanez rg or a cheap stratocaster
