preamp for AKG C414b

I just bought the C414b-ULS mic and I'm looking to record classical guitar. Any recommendations on an appropriate solid state preamp under 500 dollars?

Many people here seems to rave about the DMP3 for the quality at a low price. Is there something a little higher in price that would give me a noticeably nicer clean sound to work with that mic? I want as low noise as possible for my money since this is for classical guitar.

I'd suggest the Grace Designs 101.

I was leaning towards checking out the grace 101 preamp. Thanks for the advice. I'm relatively new at recording so any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

For under $500 I would reccomend a 2 channels D&R preamp ($499). I use my D&R console pre's quite often on acoustics with good results (with 414's).
