"I played a Johnson dreadnought in high school and was told that my fingers would stop hurting eventually. They never did do to the really high action (distance from fretboard to string). After 2yrs I finally gave up guitar. Recently I was having a 1/4 life crisis (im 25) and wanted to learn guitar. I broke out the old johnson from the closet and played for 2 weeks and again the finger problem. I went to Guitar Center and talked to a couple of the guys and started playing as many guitars as i could. I found that every single one was easier on my fingers than the johnson. I tried out the yamaha and a few others in this range. The yamaha just felt so much better. The action was perfect for a newbie but after asking another customer to test it for me (guy was freaking awesome on a guitar) I realized this one was amazing on really advanced stuff and you could strum the heck out of it and it still sounds amazing. Please if you are looking at playing guitar. PLEASE start with something like this instead of the $99-189 range... This is a 350 guitar hiding behind a 199 price tag. I know most ppl just want a guitar now but if you get a cheaper one you will quit playing because you can only take so much pain."

Both really nice guitars for your price range and specifications.
Good Luck!
I have two companies I want you to check out. Cort and Samick. Their factories in Korea make most of the worlds acoustic brands (Washburn, Alvarez, etc.), and they have their own brand which looks to me like there's more craftsmanship and pride in them. Samick are a little higher end than Cort are, but eitherway you're cutting out the middleman and you can get some really nice solidtops for around 200-400 USD, which is like 150-300 Euros
