Welcome to The Guitar world! It's a wonderful place to be!
Classical Guitars are somtimes called spanish guitars and they have Nylon strings. Classical guitars are best for finger picking style (Example below), so if you like the idea of working on a musical piece by yourself but making it sound really pretty, Classical Guitar might be up your alley. With fingerpicking and classical guitar you don't use a pick and instead pluck the strings with your fingers. Nylon strings don't hurt as much as Acoustic Guitar Strings, but they're not the best for rock n roll if you catch my drift. Regular acoustic guitars have metalic strings which will hurt at first and be tough to press down, but you will build up callouses quicker and it makes switching to Classical or Electric Guitar a breeze! You don't neccesarily need a Guitar Case unless you plan on lugging your guitar around places with you. My first acoustic didn't have a case or a gig bag and I brought it to and from Guitar lessons for a few months. If you opt to not get a case just make sure you keep your guitar in a safe place and be careful where ever you take it. A strap is also optional, you won't really be playing standing up until you really start to get good and start preforming. When looking for a guitar though, the best thing to do is 'feel' all the guitars in your price range. Since this is your first guitar shoot for the $200 price range. You'll get a working instrument and you can easily trade up in a year or so when you get better. Go to a guitar center or a music store near you and try out all the guitars in your price range. Ask someone who works there and they will gladly tell you anything you want to know about buying your first guitar. Then, even though you don't know how to play anything, sit with the guitar in your lap and really get a feel for how the guitar sits with you. Pick the guitar that feels the most comfortable and one that you can easily acess all the frets on the neck. Personally I like Epiphones, but my first acoustic was a Jasmine by Takamine. While you're shopping for your guitar, look for some Beginner Guitar books that help explain all the basics, feel free to ask the shop representative about this too, and consider getting lessons. Things become so much easier with lessons and you will be able to actually start playing songs you like quicker then you ever thought possible. I take lessons and have for a year and a half, and I always look forward to each lessons! Ask your shop rep if they can recommend anyone and I'm certain they'll suggest someone good and give you their card.
Good luck! The first few months are the hardest but as long as you keep pushing through the hard times you will be amazed by how good you get!
