Top-notch entry-level options at bargain prices

One of the best things about the Black Friday music deals is that the bargain prices on offer are perfect for those looking to begin their music making journey. Ergo, Black Friday = more musicians = a better world.

Take these two Squier Bullets, for example. Both are highly respectable starter options, and this weekend they're identically priced at $120.

The Squier Bullet Strat is perhaps the safest option, featuring a bolt-on maple neck with a 21-fret, 9.5"-radius Indian laurel fretboard, a vintage-style synchronized tremolo bridge and die-cast tuners. And the red sparkle finish on offer here isn't too shabby.

The Mustang is a less mainstream option, but we'd be tempted to recommend its short 24" scale to total beginners. But, really, at these prices, you can't go wrong either way.
