any of the 12 fret 25.4" Scale models with modified V or authentic neck would be the easiest transition into a steel string for a classical player, regardless a 12 fret is the miumum requirement as it will typically have a 1-3/4 nut up to 1-7/8 and of course the proper spacing at saddle. Then a nice mic (a real mic) into a quality amp (a real quality amp) and you will certainly be on the way. If you want something on the lower price range there is Recording King ROS626 based on Martins 000-12 fret design with a huge neck that would fit a classical players hands excellent. Then there are the peghead BR142 and BR162 Blueridge 12 fret, scalloped bracing, nice appointments. and of course a Martin 000-28VS could be the one and only you ever need.
