I wanna spend around 200-300 dollars CAD. I like 90s alternative music. 80s post punk. No wave music and angular music in general. What ive looked at has been :

Buy Epiphone Les Paul 100 Left-Handed Electric Guitar | Left Handed Electric Guitars | Musician's Friend

Guitars the Agile AL-2000 2TS Flame Wide Left Handed

Buy Squier by Fender Stratocaster Left-Handed Electric Guitar | Left Handed Electric Guitars | Musician's Friend

Any suggestions? Anyone heard anything good about agile? From what I have read on the web they are a very good cost effective company.

Personally I would not buy anything Squier except for maybe there Classic Vibe series. The rest are often made of **** wood and **** hardware/pickups. For about 300 bucks you could get a used Made In Mexico Strat/Tele that would be far better quality than the squier.

mim strat items - Get great deals on Musical Instruments, mim stratocaster items on eBay.com!

As to Agile, Iv seen a few good ones but they seem to be very hit or miss. And DO NOT get the Epi 100 Les Paul. Awful guitar, and for around 300 you could get an Epi SG/Les Paul Standard.

Although deciding between a Paul and Strat is a pretty big difference, you should probably figure out which will work best for your style of playing.

Also Iv seen some really nice Guitar Fetish Xaviere's. Lots of Youtbe reviews and such as well. Definitely check them out. There not gona play like a 2000 dollar Gibby but for less than 200 or 300dollars you really get your money worth.
