They're pretty much the same thing in terms of note placement on the guitar neck, except that electrics usually have a few more frets for higher notes. If your $ range ends at 200 dollars you should look for an epiphone or johnson or even ibanez acousic. But if you really want an electric, get an epiphone, squire(made by fender), or ibanez. these are all good brands of guitars to start off with. - hope this helped!

First off, if you want one or the other, like if you get TOTALLY STOKED about one, but not the other, then don't even think, and get the one you WANT. You said that the acoustic is more fitting to your music taste, so STOP. Don't think any more, and get an acoustic. Get a Solid Top acoustic if you can. Its way better acoustically and makes it a better long term guitar. Its hard to find one for <$200, but I've included a link to a brand that makes great guitars with solid tops cheap. The quality will likely be better than epiphone. The fingerings are logically identical between acoustic and electric, but even among acoustics each neck is different, and many guitars have different fret and string spacings. They will all feel somewhat different. Good Luck Rocking, John Acoustic or Electric?
