epiphone les paul special II Cheap and great to learn on if you want to learn on an electric and most people do with all the different effects it seems to hold peoples interest better than an acoustic
But i would suggest going to your local Guitar center/ music shop and just look around and ask questions
I would agree with this if he already knew how to play, or if he already had experience - but this guy may stop playing after 3 months (no offense OP, just happens)
IMO - This is right

for learning i would say a squire strat...
They are SHIT once you have learned to do some basics, but it means that if you DO decide to stop playing - you have only spent $100 tops on a guitar rather than $250 ++, which you won't make back.
