U go try it and feel it urself. If u feel comfortable then just buy it. Most of the guitars priced below rm400 are more or less the same especially for those who've played higher range once.
My 2 cents, just stick to ur budget.

The question now is, do u intend to buy one guitar that can last u up to intermediate level or u start with cheap ones and will only upgrade ur guitar then. If u can fork out rm700 then u can go for a solid top acoustic. Basic math: If u upgrade later, ur total cost that u will spend on guitars would be Cheapo guitar RM400 + solid top guitar RM700 =RM1100 Buy a solid top guitar straight = RM700 P.s: better quality/sounding guitar will motivate u to practise and play more.

Just wat im thinking. But right now 700 is out of my budget.. i can go only 500 for now. i do a lot of google with yamaha f310 and i think it meet my budget for now. your opinion bos. is f310 worth to buy? or wit 500 i can get better guitar than f310?

Decide your budget and try them to find the best. My all time favourite is cort earth mini. But it is not a full size guitar so it is not for everyone.

For the same thing u pay much lesser with the brands i meantion before. After all, the advise still, test the guitar before your purchase. Eventho you know nothing about guitar. But you can feel which one speaks to u.
