So obviously I want a new guitar. I'm not exactly a beginner, but I definitely wouldn't call myself "experienced" either. And I know nothing about types of guitars. I've been playing for little over a year, but not very consistently, I just teach myself a few songs if I have free time. I want an acoustic steel-string, but I'm not sure exactly what to get. If you know a lot about body type, finish, string gauges, etc., what kind of things would you suggest?

I'm good at fingerpicking, but can't always make that great of a sound when strumming because I can't really use a pick. I used to, but found it easier to play without it, and now I just can't seem to get myself to feel comfortable playing with a pick again. right now I have a classical nylon string.
