Dina-

i have a a 410ce, i've had it for several years and it's a great 
guitar, i too songlead at camp in the summer and 3 times a week at a 
religious school, in addition i do hillel services, and write some 
stuff on the side, it's a beautiful sounding guitar, however on the top 
end of your price range i think, but i would totally recommend it.
