To be quite honest, I don't think you're going to be able to do it. It'll be hard finding a good guitar at that price point (though Yamaha does have some decent playing and sounding starter packs around that...I've played them and they're not that bad). But you want something that'll be good for styles that may require more than one guitar. I'm not sure about playing flamenco on a steel string flat top.

There are guitars that are very good for playing a variety of styles...Larrivee, Taylor, Takamine, Yamaha, Seagull, Squire (by Fender) and others come to mind, but finding it at your price point...especially new...is gonna be very tough.

Check ebay, check around for something used, I'd guess. Others may have better ideas.

All of this is IMHO, of course.
