That depends what you're trying to do. A classical guitar needs to be held and played in classical guitar position. The flat fretboard allows for playing harder shapes. A steel string is definitely...

Overall Yamaha beginner guitars have a good reputation. The other thought is maybe you want to get a nylon string rather than a steel string. A YouTube on this choice.

The Yamaha FG800 is $200. The extra $90 is worth it for the solid spruce top and better in the log run.

I have the Rogue and without a proper setup (lowering the action) it is a hard guitar to start with. I’d go with this Yamaha or the Ibanez that some people mentioned below.
