Best Answer

A standard full-size guitar should be appropriate in almost every case for a teenager, regardless of their body size or hand size. Some extremely small acoustic Guitarists (Ani Difranco, Tim Reynolds) have simply adapted their small frames to the size of the instrument with amazing results. I feel like beginning to learn on a 3/4 size guitar could potentially limit your facility on a larger instrument later on... so you should just get used to it now.

What is the best acoustic guitar for a 210 year old child?

If I am correct in thinking that you meant a 10 year old child, It does not really matter what brand of guitar it is. What matters is the size. I recommend that you start out with a relatively cheap guitar just in case the child wants to back out later or accidentally breaks the guitar.

A 3/4-sized guitar would be a better choice. If you consider buying an electric guitar, keep in mind that it's quite heavy for a 9-year old and frequently carrying it on a strap may result in spinal disorders - so I was told in a guitar shop.
