The Martin CO does great guitars, and depending on your budget youll probably get a great guitar by Martin. Although there are may other great brands, like Larrivee and Maton. If you want to go a little lower in price you can check out Sigma guitars and Furch! Id suggest you look into the OM style guitars, especially if you like fingerstyle. Kind regards/Emil

It really depends on the style you play and how you play! Sometimes, I feel that blues sounds better on the steel string guitar, because it has a much more bluesy sound. That being siad, there are some great musicians using the Nylon string for blues too!
If you play with nails, it's a bit easier to play nylon string I think!
I use nylon string for some songs and steel string for others! :) Kind regards/E
