help for newbie (acoustic or EUB ?)

Hey Guys,
I'm new in this forum and I'm writing from Italy

I'm starting to play DB but I'm very dubious between acoustic and EUB! For space and amplification I prefer the EUB (Palatino model)
but someone told me to study with a "real" acoustic db (but with I can't afford a good one with my cash)

I have 500-700 Euro to spend and my target is to play jazz in fingering and rockabilly in slap...

What do you recommend to me???
(ps.I've read the sticky for newbie but I'm still confused about my specific question)

...it's a little bit O.T. but... can nylon strings work with EUB or pick up (in acoustic db)?
Thanks, and sorry for my bad enlgish
