quite frankly i would avoid both guitars.

getting a low end electric guitar with a whammy bar is going to cause you WAY more headaches than it's worth. keeping it in tune will be a never ending challenge.

also don't get a guitar with a Floyd Rose if you have to ask these type of questions because they're a pain in the butt for people like me who can answer these types of questions so for someone in your position, they'll just make you cry hehehe

if a guitar with a fixed bridge is not an option then i strongly recommend you consider blocking the bridge as soon as you get the guitar. it's as simple as wedging a rolled up piece of cardboard in the cavity between the back of the bridge and the body (the cavity is where the bridge is able to move when you press on the tremolo bar).
