Thank you so much!
I do completely agree. The best way to find the guitar for you, is to go to a local music shop and try out a few guitars that look appealing to you until you find your favorite. And, yes, you're correct. No matter what guitar you have (As long as it's in good, playing condition) will change how well you play, that's completely up to your own skill.
Cheers!
