However, what prevents me from wanting one is the Fender "noiseless," pickups, which are just stacked humbuckers voiced to sound as close to a single coil as possible. When I pick up a strat, I want real deal single coil pickups.

Take off the old pickguard carefully. Desolder the output jack, Desolder the cavity and body ground wires. Solder the pickup wires to the output jack, Ground open wires and voila you are done. If you don't like where you are with the new pickguard just do the same to go back. Keep the pickguard so when you sell it you can offer the buyer a choice of the original setup or your upgraded pickguard.

For honestly, every guitar ..... They all sound same to me LOL 🤣😂 just looks different, The Ibanez Jem Jr really looks nice 😆😆
My advice is to get a style of guitar that your favorite guitarist plays. After a year or so, you're going to develop preferences, and those will dictate the type of guitar you really want to play, which is why I recommend your first guitar be a reputable "starter," guitar like a Squier Classic Vibe or Yamaha Pacifica. Something sub-$500. You could spend $10,000 on your first guitar, only to realize you prefer a thicker neck, a lighter (weight) body, or a different pickup configuration.
But, while you're searching, you can google the difference between humbucker pickups, single coil pickups, and P-90s.
However, keep in mind that the most expensive guitar will still sound like shit through a cheap 5w amp, while a cheap $100 guitar will still sound pretty good through a decent amp. The importance of the guitar is more centered around quality control, comfort, and aesthetics.
