I'm actually in the market for an electric guitar and associated paraphernalia to give to my boy for his birthday at the end of next month. I'm torn though because I don't want him to stop playing the nice Martin D-18 that belonged to his grandfather. But that's just me being selfish. I know he would love an electric.
I don't want to spend a lot of money, but I also don't want something he can't play. What was the source of that cheap guitar you purchased, LJ? And is it something you would recommend? If it has an annoying hum, are there fairly straightforward fixes for a handy lad and his dad? I saw your link to grounding the electricals to avoid hum. I'd guess I am in the sub $150 range and ideally around $100.
