I would say play both and pick which one you like the most. I love my Gibson Explorer but the frets up high are kind of small and I have big fingers, but Fenders mostly don't have a 22nd fret and the single coil pickups don't sound as good, IMO.
Keep in mind a new Fender costs $400 whilst a new Gibson will run you at least $1,000 (unless you buy one from Musicians Friend maybe)
