It's always nice to find an instrument you love. There's plenty of great guitars at the lower end of the price range; you just usually have to look a little harder for them.
When buying Gibson or Fender or Cort, you're not paying for quality, but rather for quality assurance. Gibsons are guaranteed to play well right off the wall, whereas some of the cheaper brands may take a bit of searching and/or massaging to get the best tone out of them.
Now you get to start looking for the right strings, pick etc. This is where it gets even more fun.
