planning on going out and searchign for an accoustic around 100$ (im new i don't see a point in going beyond this price when im noob at it and don't even know if i'll love it) iso best advice on how to teach myself, i play the trumpet already( yes i know nerd instrument and its also very far from strumming chords...) so im figureing im going to have a slight advantage to learning it than others but still would like some info on a book or somethign thats great on teaching myself with.

$100... don't waste your money.

all my friends got their acoustics for around 100 dollars and they sound quite fine lol.

But once you actually pick it up and want something good, you'll realize you wasted $100 on a shitty guitar.

$100 gets you a toy. An instrument will be around $200. Get this or a Guitar Hero controller for less:

yes

I suggest $400 minimum
prolly closer to $600

No, don't do this unless you are POSITIVE that Guitar is your life hobby. Alot of people spends loads on their first guitar, play for a month then never play it again. and THAT is a waste of money.

You need to up your budget to $200 and find a tier 1 Yamaha acoustic.

From there, you can learn on a good instrument, set yourself some targets of lets say 5 songs in 3 months. Once done, you should now consider spending $400-$600.

Truth. My first drumset was 200 dollars from a friend. My second was 400. My currents kit about 2,000. Make sure you like the instrument before you drop considerable money on it.
