Don't buy online.
Test it out first.
Check the string action and make sure the neck isn't a fucking banana.

Yamaha have good budget acoustics. I'd just save for a Martin or Taylor though.

Guitar is the worst classical instrument you could choose. Buy a clarinet or a trombone.

Have you ever played a classical guitar? I love the nylon strings but hate the wide neck. Find something with the best of both worlds.

for 500 he could get a smaller body martin or taylor. perfect for around the house

Buy an Alhambra.

i've been playing for over 3 years.

I can save up to 1000 $ i guess.

So a regular acoustic but with nylon strings?

Get a lute instead.

i could say that, its less heavier too, grabbed it once. its sound is much softer than acoustic guitar.

I went to guitar center to buy a guitar ($160 budget lmao) and you'd be surprised the differences in the same make and model of guitars. Maybe it's just because they were low budget and mass produced, but on some the action was wrong, the frets were too high ect. so you'd get so much string buzz.

I ended up finding a guitar that plays well and suits my liking. It was on sale as well, so I only payed $120

This. That guitar was a Yamaha F335. It's not high quality, but for a beginner it has been pretty great, IMO. They definitely have better, more expensive stuff.

Or just go for the Martin or Taylor, like he said.

Not a beginner.

My current guitar is Yamaha C40. Been playing it for 2 years. Bought it around $100.

I have an aria model AC-15. I'm not sure how common those are or how expensive they are, but if you can find it for $500, do it, it's an amazing guitar imo

Buy a paracho michoacan with palo escrito back myman.

I love the wide neck
Different strokes for different folks

Most Guitar Centers carry Blueridge (only some are under your budget, but still great) if you'd want to test it out first. I've never had any issues with them.

I've played classical guitar for 10 years. If you just want to play chords and rock riffs, get an acoustic. I love classical, but you need to change the strings once a month to get the best sound and it's a rough start for beginners.
