svrockstar kinda nailed it for you. . . only thing i suggest start of classical. . .

it gives you all the foundation you need to be able to play acoustic/electric/bass and the likes. . .

=)

and also depends on what music you like =D

what semi acoustic guitar is that?

if you're talking about those old school electric guitars with pups with a hollow body then those guitars are more for Jazz. . . but then again it's difference is the tone. . . and some people use them to play amazing rock and metal music. . .

all depends on your tone preference. . .hollow tend to give a wider and more rounder rich full sound. . . very much jazzy and more to the low and mids. . .

do you have a picture?

anwyay for that it's actually an acoustic guitar but with a pickup. . .

so yea it's not an electric but an acoustic guitar

yea it's good but you must play around with it. . . still i think this is more suited for acoustic clean stuff. . .

yet don't be fooled. . .Al Di Meola uses Ovation and he runs it through a Roland GK pup with GR-20 synths. ..

sounds amazing. . .it's just that you have to use your ear and find wats right for you =)

you plan to use it to play clean or with OD?

im not sure but around that price you can get quite a number of brands. . . try asking the guys at the guitar thread. .. they should be able to help you. . . i haven't been keepin up on the amp prices for quite some tiem
