Goldstar - OS-7020A
https://www.allaboutcircuits.com/test-measurement/oscilloscopes/os-os-7020a/
20 MHz
2 channel analog scope

I received this scope as a gift with no probes. I researched that I should pick a probe with 1.5x the bandwidth of my oscilloscope so a 30MHHz Probe? is there anything else I should take into consideration? This will be my primarily be used for tesla coiling and be my main bench scope for the time being.

I also have a fluke 97 50MHz scope that has no probes.

Its listed in the user manual, in the link that you provided.

It says a direct probe, which means a 1:1 probe, but on page 21 it is also mentioned that it works with a 1:10 probe.

So you can just buy any random cheap set of 30-50MHz probes with 1:10 attenuation switches and it will work fine. You are nowhere near or above 10MHz with Tesla coils anyway :)
