I plan on getting a fuzz box (most likely a Big Muff) and a compression pedal in due time, but for now I just want an electric guitar.

How about a Epiphone Nick Valensi Riviera P-94? It looks cool and for it's vibe alone I would recommend that guitar. The Riviera differs from the Casino where the latter has is hollow body (with - I think- a partial block under the bridge) and the Riviera is a semi-hollow and has a block thru body construction like an ES 335 and then there is the "
Epiphone Limited Edition Riviera Custom P93" (electric guitar) with a Bigsby (style) vibrato bar which looks interesting.
Epiphone guitar are always 90% of a mid -> hi price guitar, there are always certain minor things about them that different from Gibson like the curve radius of the neck the sound quality of the p-ups, fret buzz etc etc
Fender put out a new line Pawn Shop guitars which I think a little pricey for what they represent - a cheap pawn guitar

but there's a semi-hollow Strat body, Cassie Ramone of the Vivian Girls has one and it looks sweet.
