Wife wants a guitar

I echo the comments on the Yamaha acoustic, a great beginner's guitar. Electrics are easier to play, but they need to be plugged in and can be more of a hassle if you're just trying to play some chords and strum.

Another great option is to find a Taylor Big Baby. Gorgeous sounding little guitars that don't cost too much. As mentioned above though, take your guitar to a professional shop, even a guitar center is fine, and have the guitar "set up" professionally. It'll cost about $30 but they'll adjust the action and the neck and everything and it makes the guitar much better to play.
