Good stuff, and thanks for the advice!

I'll see if there are any used instruments around that might fall in the price range. I was shopping for a Christmas present, so if a place has a decent selection in the 100-150 range, I'll see if they have gift cards. That way she can get her hands on it pre-purchase.

As far as the classical, that was actually something someone else brought up to me. My only concern is that she has itty bitty hands, but I'll get her to hold onto one and see what she thinks.

I knew to stay away from the major brands, they're never worth the investment for someone who hasn't played for quite a while. I got my Rickenbacker for my 30th birthday as a gift to myself for 14 years of playing, and I still feel I probably don't deserve the damn thing. It sure is great to play, though!
