i would definitely go to 30th Street Guitars (directions on their website!) and just start pulling guitars off the walls at random for ones that look cool. Do this under supervision of the salesfolk tho since they are all over 300 bucks (sometimes 10 times more). Just learn one or two chords before you go tho and strum them slow and listen. If you like what you hear, start googling for cheaper alternatives of that type or report back here and we can help!
There are soooo many choices, so yep try a ton out and let us know what you think - living in NYC will spoil the casual buyer!
