I bought a cheap Alvarez classical(300.00) and put a gulpeador (plastic tap plate sticker)on it. Had a great sound just needed the action fixed, which most guitars are set to high from the factory. I know the clearance isn't right from strings to the guitar top but you can learn a lot of techniques on a cheap guitar, just look for intonation and good sound. I think Calvin Hazen told us that guitars have wood memory and the more you change the strings and play them the better they sound. I think my Cervantes was 1,800.00. I'm about to retire her away, she is beat up bad. Wish I would have kept the Alvarez to do the repeated scales and exercises on. I would go with the Yamaha, there good guitars. Good luck and welcome to the forum.
