Looking into a new classical guitar

@Lemoncobbler  - July 9, 2012, 10:25 p.m.

I bought my old ovation for $350 last summer, but I've been playing some other guitars recently within that price range that I like a lot more than the one I have now. The sound on my guitar isn't bad, I just haven't totally fallen in love with it like I have with my steel string and my bass.

After doing some research, my dad and I put it on craigslist for $500, and we've already had a couple people offer to buy it, and it'll probably be gone within the next two weeks.

Now i'm looking for another classical guitar (preferably electric acoustic) within the $400-$700 price range. heres a couple that i've played before that I was interested in

http://www.guitarcenter.com/Manuel-Rodriguez-C1-Cedar-Top-Classical-Guitar-103724969-i1323004.gc 400$

The Esteve GR03 approx 500$

Cordoba Iberia C7 (this one was very easy to play even on the higher frets, sounded great, loved this one instantly, but a little more pricey.)

tl;dr I need some nice classical guitar suggestions within the 400-700$ price range.

i hate cutaways, too. and would always prefer to mic a classical guitar (or any acoustic) than to have a pickup on it.

as for the guitar recommendation, it just comes down to what feels right for you. i've bought guitars that people thought i was an idiot for getting, but they played how i wanted, sounded how i wanted and thats what matters in the end. its not about street cred with your guitar or impressing anyone with a name or a price tag. its about your relationship with it and how you can manipulate it and work with it to create.

I ended up buying the cordoba C7- its so much easier to play than my ovation (and it doens't slide off my leg like the old one did hue hue.)

Heres a quick little sound test sightreading some tab or somethin
