JD Nylon. link They wear well and don't slip out of sweaty fingers easily.
Ok, here is what you need.
Jim Dunlop Nylon picks. The texture keeps them from slipping. They are nylon, so they don't break (I have some I have been using for 20+ years). The 0.60 thickness has just the right amount of give in my opinion.
I use them for RB as well as regular guitar.
Stick with tools you like using and tools that work well. I have the 64-bit iFixit Pro kit and love it, but I've replaced many of the included tools that came with it. I am always on the search for tools that make my job easier, faster and produce better results. I even sometimes make my own tools or experiment with different materials for picks. I add grips, sharpen/shape my metals tools to aid whatever I'm doing.
But my favorit-est tool? 0.6mm Nylon Guitar Picks
This Yamaha gets amazing reviews and is $199. It's as good as it gets in the $200 range.
You'll want steel strings for most music, nylon for classical.
You're going to want to get picks and practice with them to get good. Picks are cheap so experiment with thickness to find one that is good for you. Justin Guitar from the sidebar has a great section on using a pick so I'd recommend watching that video.
You can go in a Guitar Center and play some of the guitars there but it might do you some good to find someone that already plays to go with you. Have that person play the various guitars in your price range so you can hear what each one sounds like. Ask for their feedback on what they like/don't like about each one.
