picked up an acoustic yamaha guitar myself 2 weeks ago sean! cost me 280.. was told if you can read music, can play another instrument etc then get something better quality than a begineer's guitar..
i'm not an expert on guitars but i preffered hearing what the guitar sounded like before buying it so i went to a shop to get a listen before choosin one,personally i wouln't buy it over the net
I suppose what im asking is which brands would be best to look out for. I'd know what brands are good for electric but not acoustic. Would be best to try some out alright first but more likely be cheaper from thomann! Which model did you get as a matter of interest?

Call into the shop in Midleton Sean & ill go threw a few with you! Have loads of new stock so you can play them & see if anything takes your fancy??? Up to you
I have been playing a Tanglewood for a while now.Highly recommended.They would fall into your price range as well.
T.b.h. the most important thing about accoustics is action[distance of strings to neck.shouldnt be too far away as they wil be harder to play] and intonation i.e. play any open string and the octave[12 frets up]If they are not giving the same note then the neck is not good although can be adjusted [by a pro that is!]
Last but not least is the sound the guitar produces.If it is to your taste then you are at a good starting point.
Hope that is of some help to you.
PM me if you need any more advice.
