Note: there have been many recent changes to these web pages - the menu bars (top and bottom of the pages) should make locating  relevant pages easier.   I suggest/recommend and provide links to a number of editions of  guitar music (classical, fingerstyle, and other editions using standard notation as well as TAB) for guitarists at all levels - please note that I do not have all of these editions nor would I use all of them since I am primarily a classical guitarist.  The Christmas/holiday music page does contain a number of comments about difficulty levels and some favorite anthologies.  The composer specific pages provide a little background and in some cases, links to web sites with more information.
