Guitar Enthusiasts, I need help picking my first rig!

I recently have been learning guitar on my old acustic and have really wanted to get into electric guitar. I'm still learning the basics of things and I want to a guitar that can play music I like. The music I listen to is a mixture between pop, indie, but also punk rock. I went out to a guitar shop and tried some guitars and amps and these were the 2 I was drawn too. I would like something under 700 dollars (guitar wise) and the amp I'm willing 250 (Canadian currency) let me know if the ones I liked are good or if there are some better ones I can take a look at! Awesome thanks :)
