Thanks for your advice, Martian. I found a website that's good for navigating pretty much any scale you can think of. I will focus on the basics first.

I think I'm leaning towards an acoustic guitar, especially since they can be had in the sub-$200 range and I have a birthday coming up. I will make do with my electric. I think with some adjustments, it will be fine. The wiring can be fixed with a quick soldering job I think. I just don't have the tools and materials. I think at this point I will only buy a new electric when (or if) I think my skill has improved enough to warrant buying an instrument that will sound really good.

Good luck on your classical pursuit. There is some really cool stuff out there.
