I don't think you'll get a solid top AND sides for that kind of money unless you buy "used". However, (and you didn't mention what style of music you play or what style of guitar you're looking for) a Yamaha FG700S is a very good guitar in that price range. I'm sure there are others, but I'm more familiar with the Yamaha at that price point.
Happy hunting and welcome to the forum by the way.
