Welcome Amy.
re the guitar... it would help our resident experts if you could give some idea of your budget and what you used to play to give a guide to neck size and body size.
There is a huge amount of variation in guitars.
IMO set a budget with a little come and go
Try out every guitar in the shop(s) within your budget. Find one that fits your hand and body then having done that, find the ones that sound best to your ears. Be prepared to go a little over budget if you cant find the right one within your budget.
Dont ignore second hand guitars but maybe get a 2nd pair of eyes and ears to look them over for you .
