  Acoustic guitar

I have a Fender Strat (almost never used) and a classical Admira Sevilla which I have been using under the guidance of a tutor who insisted that I needed to learn to read music. This has worked and I find myself now playing the melodies in simple songs rather than the chords. But I want to do both and realistically my preferred direction is to be able to play without an upright (classical) stance and methodology, ideally on an acoustic guitar.

I have just moved and will be finding a new tutor (non-classical). My question is should I buy a steel-string acoustic or "make-do" with the nylon string classical guitar? Money is not an issue here.

There is a fab guitar shop round the corner and they are keen on selling me a Faith acoustic. Sound sensible ..?
