when looking at guitars in this price range i recommend staying away from floating tremolos...a string thru body will be better for beginners

I agree! However, this will be my second guitar and is definitely the cheapest option for a guitar with a Floyd Rose tremolo. It should get here tomorrow, I'm excited Smilie

I guess I should mention that they are offering the non Tremolo models for even cheaper ($105), but I think the Floyd Rose model is a much better bargain.

is this your first floyd rose? i would recommend doing some research in proper set up, maintaining, and re-stringing of floating bridges....yes they can be fun but for most people they end up being more of a pain in the neck...being that it is going to be a second guitar i recommend keeping it in one tuning until you restring or have the time to properly set it up for a different tuning (i drop/raise tune all the time)...also look into trem blocks or the tremel-no if you ever dont want to deal with the trem...have fun

Would this guitar with the standard sting through / No Tremolo option be a good choice? The price is around what I would like to pay. Thank you for your time.

I'm shopping for a gift first guitar.

The price is around what I would like to pay.

Thank you for your time.

I've been very pleased with the quality of the guitar. Shipping was very fast and I've been playing it every day for a week now and it's been a blast.
I would say that you could do a lot worse than getting the No Tremolo option. I'm now a fan of Washburn guitars, especially at this price point! This guitar is definitely better than the Japanese no-name guitar I bought for roughly the same price many years ago from a pawn shop, so it's quite a step up for me. My vote is GO FOR IT!
