There is a brand called "guitarras del brazos" that are really good nilon strings, even though "guitars of the arms" doesn't make alot of sense....i get where they are comin from.

If you ever want steel string buy a seagul.

hey man, thats not a nylon or it doesnt seem to be a true one. I dont know how serious you plan on getting, but in my opinion at least, get an ebony fretboard with a Spruce top, rosewood back and sides, there is no doubt thats the best you could get. ill try to find you one on ebay, just hang on a little while.

Yeah it can be if you don't ask the right questions and don't have experience with it. You can usually get better deals through classified ads and pawn shops anyways.

if by 200-300 you actually mean 2000-3000, get a CF Martin or a Taylor!

Sorry, my dad is a classical guitarist, so im blessed with a $2200 CF Martin for whenever i want to play acoustic... which means i know nothing about lower ended stuff. MY acoustic is an Ibanez which plays quite nice and sounds decent, cost me around $200. I'd recommend it.... heres a link

Doesnt match the specs you listed, but i figured you might like the suggestion anyway.

I hear those Canadian made acoustics are pretty good. Seagull, Simon & Patrick and one other brand. They're also within your price range, check 'em out.

I've played the S6 model which costs like 5-600 dollars. They weren't bad, but there was really nothing special about them either.

for classical check out....Gipsy kings or Cordoba, for your price range i would say Cordoba 40R classical, that guitar is badass for the money, hand made in spain, solid cedar top, rosewood back and sides, mahogony neck. this guitar plays like a high end guitar but can be had for like 300-400 on ebay.

either

grab a Seagull - Canadian made, and superb quality and playmanship in my opinion, they run about $325+ here in the florida panhandle

another good buy, a spanish guitar company called Giannini, I dont know if they make them in spain or brazil, but I have a brazillian made out of red skita spruce I think and it cost me about 160$ from a guitar store, and man, this thing if flawless. Also, on the companies website, the guitarist from Sepultura uses them when he plays classical music. They also make steel string acoustic guitars.
