I don't know much about guitars, but do you want acoustic or electric? I'd recommend learning on a steel string acoustic.

It's not the side effects of cocaine, so then I'm thinking that it must be love

Acoustics... I can't really say, Electrics, I found that a Fender Squire was quite a good guitar

nope.

You can get a cheap Fender Strat for that much, dont bother with the squire.

As for acoustics, check out the Fender or Epiphone Dreadnaughts. It's pretty much your basic guitar. Stay away from Ovation, they sound like poopie.

Start to play on steel string acoustic, and after 4 years you'll be playing like a pro.
