I suggest 2 models, first i love the JOYE510.  i know i'm beatin an almost dead horse, but it's true, it's a great model fer first timers.  if there lookin fer somethin a lil closer to a analog, maybe the M40X series with the PPC.  just got my m402 a few days ago and i love it as well.  More of my friends are willing to at least demo my m402 bc it so closely resembles the size of a analog.
