I have a Fender guitar that I purchased from Costco years ago. I think the whole package including a stand, tuner, gig bag, strap etc was $200. I did not use it all these years and started learning late last year. Now I feel the guitar intonation is not correct. I also get quite a bit of fret buzz on low E and A. I have not tried adjusting the truss rod. Being a beginner, I was afraid I may break it. I replaced the strings recently.

There are no other damages to the guitar.

I looked up how much it costs to setup a guitar. A reasonable setup costs ~$100 around here in San Jose, CA.

Not sure if it is the exact model, but a Fender Squire guitar is only little bit more than $100.

Should I buy a new guitar or should I fix the one I have?
