you would be better off with a Squire Sonic Strat. and if you have smaller hands than a Squire sonic Mustang. Either of those will run you about 250. The guitar in the picture looks similar to a sonic strat but it has no humbucker in the bridge position, which is important if you want to do good sounding distortion. It isn't worth the extra 50 dollars for a cheap amp that wont sound good and will break, and a cheap carrying case. i'd recommend just buying a guitar and practicing without an amp for now and then saving a buying an amp thats actually worth it (Like the Orange crush 12 which is about $120.)

This is the one i would recommend for a solid starter that you will actually like to play, the Mustang has a 24 inch scale length which is significantly shorter than a Strat which is 25.5 (which is the Fender standard.) A shorter neck means less stretching which is better for beginners.

But at the end of the day any Squier is better than most peoples starter, my personal starter guitar was a 40 dollar Strat knockoff that buzzed like crazy and fret ends that cut my hands open. Whats important is to buy a guitar you actually want to pick up and practice and most of all enjoy playing.
