If you had $1000 for a complete golf set, what would you buy?

You can go a little over...
I was thinking:

Driver: Nike SQ Sumo (2) $300

Irons: Nike Golf- Slingshot OSS 4-AW Irons Steel (+1/2 Inch, 2° Upright) $390

Fairway Woods: ??? taylor made? which model?

Putter: ??? titleist? which model?

Bag: Nike - Xtreme Sport II Carry Bag $100

I am a beginner and this is my first set, but I want clubs that can last me a while. Thanks for your help.

Long answer:
First I buy them used so I would go to a local golf shop and test out the top of the line golf clubs such as Nike, Taylor Made, Callaway, etc. (personal favorite store: Golfsmith)

Chances are, the brand for your driver may vary from the brand of irons and wedges. When you found what you want, go online, such as globalgolf.com or http://callawaygolfpreowned.com/default.aspx or http://www.golfsmith.com/po/ and buy them used but make sure they're in almost new or mint condition. If they don't have it, there's no choice but to buy from rockbottomgolf.com since they got some of the best prices in golf clubs and if you don't mind taxes, you can even buy from golfsmith.com.

Whatever you do, NEVER ever tell the salesman that you have $1000 to spend on golf clubs. Yes he will give you the best set under $1000 but I can get you the best and maybe the same set for less.

I use Cobra drivers, MacGregor irons, Wilson SW and MacGregor LW, Dunlop putter and my games are very consistent. If I were to play hardcore and competing with others, I may buy more expensive golf clubs but since this is for recreational purposes and fun, I don't need top of the line but yes, I do recommend buying high rated golf clubs.

Short Answer: (high end)
Driver: Taylor-Made Burner or r7
Woods: see below website
Irons: Ping G10 or Callaway Big Bertha
Wedges: anything from Cleveland golf
Putter: Titleist Scotty Cameron
Bag: any bag that you like in terms of brand and look

(mid end)
Driver: anything from Cobra
Woods: anything from Adams
Irons: anything from Mizuno
Wedges: anything from MacGregor
Putter: Odyssey
Bag: personal preference

I wish you the best in choosing your best set!
