Go with whatever you want to! But if you are playing acoustic, don't go below 9s , it's bad for your fingers! It makes your fingers lazy and the guitar starts sounding unnecessarily snapy!

Yamaha Pacifica. Around 15k Try not to go overboard with your budget. You can get reliable quality-sounding guitars under 30-35k. I'd save up and buy a Pacifica by Yamaha and an RG by Ibanez
