Never just blindly buy a guitar from the internet, because it could sound different than you would imagine. So I would advice you to go to a gutiar shop and just test some guitars in your price range ( you don't need to know how to play really, just how they feel and stuff ). Afterwards you can still order the guitar for a better price, but then you'll already know what will arrive.
There should be a good Ibanez or Schechter for that price. Maybe an Epiphone or a Squier ( but i don't like squiers at all.. ).

Vouch this entirely.
Go to a guitar shop before getting a guitar. You have to like the feel of the guitar, not just the look.
I suggest Ibanez, Jackson, Fender, and although i hate them, Epiphone...
