New Guitar Advice

[soliddragon]

Hey all, I've been learning the guitar (not the xbox version, the real one) for a couple months now. Reading on my own, and taking some classes

I'd picked up this real cheapy deal online when I first wanted to start playing, but can tell that it's no good. I would like to get something that while is "beginner" would be quality and last for a while, and have a great sound.

Im looking for a decent Acoustic Guitar or Acoustic/Electric
Over the last couple weeks, I've been researching online, and going into a couple stores and trying out the guitars. I think i've narrowed it down to either:

the Takamine G340C

I tried this out and it just felt really good in my hands, quite comfortable, nice low action, and good sound (to me)

I also read alot about the Seagull S6

This felt pretty good as well, and most the reviews i read have given it top honors.

Now I'm only looking to spend around $400, as my budget is pretty tight as of late. But If anyone around here has any experience specifically with either of these 2 guitars, I'd love to hear from you. Or maybe some advice.
Thanks

Cheap.

Your 400$ is more than enough to get a good quality guitar.

Cutaway.

No cutaway.

i'd recommend trying out some Ibanez' and Ovations. i've always enjoyed their acoustics. Real easy to play with great tone.

Oh, and this should go without saying really, but if you find a Martin for around 400$ you should pick that up.
