    Does anyone own or recommend a nylon string guitar roughly the size of a parlor guitar?

    On the cheap end, it is for a beginner.

    There are 3/4 size classicals for younger students.

    I'd look for a la patrie motif.

    Thanks, "3/4 size" I think was the term I needed. I see some under 200$. I know it's possible to find something decent, Jim Dandy is my favorite guitar! I wish I had time to shop around for used and deals but this is for a birthday that has already passed.

    Edit: Any of these?

    Cordoba and Yamaha guitars are good value, especially the cheaper ones. Expect to dress the fret-ends to some degree and look at the action at the nut and bridge saddle. These issues are easily taken care of and make for a playable instrument.

    With your budget you're indeed looking at a "kid's" classical guitar, I fear.

    Well beyond but still reasonably priced IMHO:
