Cheap guitar suggestions?

So I just had to retire my second oldest guitar due to complete wiring failure. Have had it since 2014 (bought used) and played it a ton. But it was a cheap fender starcaster (yes starcaster not stratocaster) and I was looking to replace it. Any good suggestions for a cheap guitar ($300 or lower) for me to replace it with?

    I own a Jackson js32q dka, it’s a dinky (7/8 size) and features a floyd style bridge, it plays incredibly well and stays in tune excellent, Slap some emgs or blackouts in and you have a guitar you can use forever.

    It definitely is. It gets me through blues, jazz, metal, and whatever else I play. The neck pickup is super clean, the bridge has a tinge of higher gain and if you use a pedal or turn your amps gain up it really does shine.
