If that`s still out of your budget you can pick up any of the other Vintages(with wilkinson hardware and Pickups)for around £150. I play through a JetCity JCA 2112 Combo(all tube,with spring reverb),that and the Lemon Drop cost me just over £500 and people always comment on my tone. Great site by the way :) The new Vintage series of guitars are excellent,especially the Lemon Drop.Based on Peter Green`s famous guitar,with the PG mod`s ready to go.Very decent tone,hardware and feel for around £300,unbeatable!

Staying tune is a problem but; buy new saddles then dont look at your back. stuck dimarzio pickups but i think seymours will be a good heal for the tone... short story: use an SX ash thinline telecaster I use an Sx ash telecaster thinline guitar… and its like wow, amazing. its cheaper than any squier product, and it can beat some fender by Mexico… very good blues’ rock guitar. ok but isnt my guitar had some cons? ofcourse it had but. with some modifying it s better and better now. quality of tree makes ride up the tone… but really tone was good with the stock pickups.

I use .011s and .010s. Anything below .010s seems very thin sounding to me. If you can't play them though then id doesn't matter. Use what feels comfortable. I wouldn't recommend using .015s. That's just way too big unless your playing lap steel. I think string gauge matters a lot. I use .011s and .010s. Anything below .010s seems very thin sounding to me.
