Try a few and pick what you like. Maybe avoid some of the cheap Squier models and the like as they aren't so hot. Maybe buy second hand off Ebay or similar to save cash. If you ever decide to sell one bought this way you'll probably get all your money back. Its down to how it feels to you when you play. Try a few and pick what you like.

They are quite versatile. The standard stratocaster is available from Fender for less than $600, which includes a case. It is really hard to outgrow a strat. They are quite versatile.

I play a few guitars and i never have enjoyed anything as much as my strat. You can't simply understand a guitar from numbers/models/parts/features though, you have to go in and play it and feel it for yourself. It's a comfort thing. I fell in love with my guitar at a guitar center when i was 16, i still have it and love it. There are a few huge differences between Fender guitars, mainly it's either a Mexican or an American. American is where the quality is at. Maple necks are my favorite and the most playable for me, it just seems more smooth. As for Strings, Fender bullets work great on a fender and you will love them. Pick-ups are a massive part of guitar quality. I really don't have enough knowledge of the subject to influence your choice here. My advice: Go to a local music store, pick one up, plug it in, see how you like it and go from there. People who work in music shops are very good about that stuff too and just explain what you're looking for. Best of luck to you!
