As a beginning and now mediocre intermediate guitarist, I often found that it was easier to arrange a tune that I wanted to play than to find a published arrangement that was within my ability. I might as well share these arrangements with you, as some of you have shared yours with me. Some of these arrangements use alternative tunings, but all are suitable for intermediate classical and fingerstyle guitarists. They are in PDF format, so you will need Adobe's free Acrobat Reader.
