If you dont know choices such as Strat and Les Paul styles would probably suit you best.

Well I want to play mostly jazz (funk) and rock. I would like to have a versatile guitar though so I could go out of my range. Would I be able to do that with a Strat or Les Paul?

a few more questions to consider...
what's your rough budget or at least the minimum you plan on spending?
you have an amp already?
is this an upgrade from another electric? if so, what kind?
and like RezZ said, what do you plan on playing with it?

Well I haven't done much research on actual guitars yet, I was learning more regarding guitar anatomy. I'm confused between single-coil and humbucker. How can I rate a guitar in terms of quality and sound. I've heard that there are many differences in sound with different guitars. I've also heard that the shape and fret/string size must suit the player's needs. Too many things to consider lol.
I'd say my budget is around a $1000 (Can). I'd rather buy a decent guitar now since I've already been practicing on a crappy one.
I don't have an amp so I'll need a little lesson on that lol. This will not be an upgrade from another electric, I was playing acoustic before.
Is there anything else I should consider when it comes to pickups?
