@Salty , there are many great suggestions above.
I would encourage you to go somewhere and play different models in your price range. Or take someone along with you who plays and listen to the sound of the guitars. Or ask an employee to play them for you. Think about what kind of music you want to play. If you want to play bluegrass you will want a different sounding guitar than if your goal is to play melodic fingerstyle. Also, trying out different models will help you figure out the body type that feels most comfortable for you.
That said, I was happy with the Orangewood guitars I purchased when I was starting out. The Breedlove Discovery collection is highly rated. I have heard good things about the Alvarez and Eastman guitars. If you like blues or bluegrass, Recording King might be guitars you’d like. If you’re willing to go to $550, you can purchase a Martin X series or a Taylor Academy series, both excellent starters that will stand the test of time.
And @David_Leo gave some good advice. Used may be the way to go, and reverb.com is a reputable website.
Good Luck and let us know what you decide to bring home. 🙂

Congratulations! A great accomplishment! Like the old ad says (and am I dating myself 😉) “You’ve come a long way, baby!” 🎖🎵 🌟It is always a joy to hear one of your great performances. May your fruitful guitar journey continue for many years to come!!! 🌈🚘

@AttyTJ , Congrats on your accomplishment! Woo Hoo! 👏🏼
I recommend you check Amazon or used book sites for two companion books: The Complete Guitar Player Songbook Omnibus Edition One and Two by Russ Shipton. They are both compilations of smaller songbooks with songs that our generation would know (OMG, Did I just write that??? 😲). These are my go-to books when looking for a new familiar song.
Good luck with your next year of songs.🎵

Hope to see you at a VOM soon, Darren. You are great and would love to hear you play live, when you’re ready. 🎵

I don’t think TAC allows posting of outside links @markvguitar . But all the info is on the free forum justmusicgeeks.com – hope this helps!

Marisa has her capo on. I think all you need to do is remove it and you’ll be in business!😉
