We bought my son a Epiphone and it's been good enough for him. They're made by Gibson and very affordable.

you could always do a starter kit too ... lots of different brands around with a wide price range.

I'd recommend an inexpensive Epiphone Les Paul

I don't know if he was joking or not but the Estiban guitars are good starter sets and my son still has his 4 years later, as he has advanced. Check HSN lots of nice packages.

Interesting. I had a friend whose girlfriend bought him one, and it was a piece of junk. Numerous dead frets. I wonder if he just got unlucky, or rather if you got lucky.
