In response to the whole guitar/amp thing, on a limited budget, I would recommend only purchasing an electric guitar without an amp. I know it seems crazy, but looking back I would have saved a bundle if I did it. If you use all your money on a decent sounding guitar instead of a guitar/amp combo I think you will be much happier in the long run.
The electric guitar can be played just fine without an amp (Hendrix did it all the time when he first started), and after you get better spend some money on a good amp. An amp can make a decent guitar sound great.
Just my two cents
