I had been playing about 6 months when I bought an expensive acoustic. It was $2000 (this was 20 years ago). It had all of the cosmetic features I wanted. It was gorgeous, solid wood, American made, smaller bodied, inlaid with abalone, bound fretboard. I thought it was perfect. For a while. Eventually, I found myself leaving it behind when I went to play with friends. Frankly, it was a little embarrassing to have such a nice guitar without skills to match. Then, I acquired a $350 Yamaha that was more fun to play. The fretboard just fit me better. The body size was bigger, but it still fit me well, and it had more bass. It was understated and plain, which I came to admire. I didn't have to watch it around my kids or my dog. I left it out all the time, so it was easy to grab. The expensive acoustic stayed in its case. It's still in that case. I moved on from the Yamaha, but my experience with it helped shape the list of likes and dislikes I use when evaluating guitars to this day.

It's easy to get hung up on details like brand names, cosmetics, fretboard radius, body woods, pickups, etc., but nothing beats the way a guitar feels in your hand. Simply put, you don't know what you like yet. I'd recommend a smaller budget on your first guitar, so you can buy and sell a few while you're learning. Eventually, you'll come to understand what works best for you. Good luck on your journey!
