Acoustic guitars date back to the 16th century. Over the course of 100 years, they became the most popular guitar instrument. Acoustic guitar is played all around the world, making it the most common played guitar instrument. It is the type of guitar that the music teacher will recommend for beginners because you don't really have to know how to read music. Once you've learned acoustic guitar, you will have lots of options of guitar: electric guitar, classical guitar, and etc.
Acoustic guitars have a basic design, including a head, neck, body and six strings. However, there is a wide variety in the styles of this type of guitar. The differences in strings and style of body give each guitar its special sound. Acoustic guitars can be played with or without amplifiers, that is an advantage for the beginners because they can decide that if they want the amplifier or not. Top-quality acoustic guitars have bodies, backs and sides that made of solid wood.
Acoustic Guitars are really similar to classical guitars, but they are not the same. Acoustic guitars have steel strings and thinner neck. A steel-stringed acoustic guitar produces rich, long-lasting notes. A nylon-string guitar(for example classical guitar) is less rough on the fingertips and has a softer tone. It is the the most versatile guitar instrument that plays different styles of music: classical, jazz, rock, pop, country, and punk music. It is an ideal instrument for beginners because playing it does not require you to use lots of accessories.

This is one of my favourite guitar music named Birds Poem, played by acoustic guitar~ It's from an anime named Air. The original one was played by piano and violin. I think the person who played this changed some of the parts from the original music. However, it's still so awesome! I think he played much better than the original one(my very own opinion).
Hope you enjoy!
