fender squier stratocaster standard series

which is the better guitar buy?
hi, i am currently looking for a decent to good electric guitar, and i went on craigslist and i found some guitars. can you please tell me which one seems like the best deal?
1.G12 Standard Tradition Electric Guitar plus case, amp and cord for $250
2. Ibanez AS73 Artcore electric guitar- $250
3.Ibanez SZ720FM series electric – $375
4.Fender Squier Stratocaster + Amp – $350
i really like how the number 3 looks, but idk if its worth it. thanx
Of all these guitars, the Ibanez SZ720FM is the best guitar. Depending on the shape it’s in it might be worth it.
Both 1. and 4. are basically the same thing. They are cheaply made guitars in the Strat image. A squier strat was my first guitar. I payed $350 for it with the amp and case and all. If 4. is used it’s not worth it as you can get the same deal brand new from guitar center. Of the two, 1. is the better deal and if you don’t already have an amp (amps can get REAL expensive) it might be the way to go to learn with…..
The Ibanez AS73 Artcore is a good deal as new they cost $300-$350, but it’s a half hollow body guitar. If you’re not specifically looking for one for the sound they make, I would not recommend getting one.
Good Luck
