I’m just beginning so I want a guitar that will last me a while. If you could rate the brand and model on a scale from 1-10 that would be amazing. Thanks!

Try Ibanez acoustic guitars (Taylor guitars are not bad either), they really sound good.
As for the model, it’s better that you choose one that you like.
Yamaha. Even the cheaper models are good and can last for years.
Most guitars will last a long time, they don’t really wear out or anything. As far as acoustic guitars go, a lot of people swear by Martin guitars. Guys at the guitar shops will say that Martins are the best acoustic guitars in the world. Martin has a huge price range from about $250 well up into the thousands. You also can’t go wrong with Ibanez or Epiphone. Yamaha is kinda cheapy but not a bad first guitar. I actually started on an Epiphone cutaway.
