Want to learn guitar - which one to buy?

Something I've wanted to do for a while now but currently find myself with a bit of spare time to dedicate to it regularly. Ideally I'd like to be able to play acoustic and electric - I have no preference.

So should I start with acoustic or electric? Whats best for newbies considering I'd like to play both eventually.

Then which are some recommended brands/models for either?

Ideally don't want to spend more than £200'ish at this point. Don't mind getting 2nd hand.

My bad - mod's feel free to move.

Doesn't look like much discussion on music and/or instruments though.

Haha well that would be electric anyways. I just really like the sound of an acoustic too.

What will £200 get me for an electric though? Probably something crap I imagine.

I own 3 electrics, of which one is very expensive and one Tanglewood acoustic which cost me £30 second hand. I play the cheapo acoustic 99% of the time!

Ha, just goes to show eh. Noticed you're a fellow Hulligan too. Is Goth and Davy the best place to get one from locally?
