W3ALi is
one of the finest free-score sites online. Proprietor Alfons Lievens (Belgium) doesn't scan scores - rather, he
enters and edits every score on the site, including his own fingerings and cover pages for each work. You can download
high-quality PDF and audio files for almost every score. You'll enjoy his editions of traditional composers like
Carcassi and Mertz, but his greatest contribution is publishing many original compositions, transcriptions and arrangements
by contemporary composers (your host among them). Click the link below and prepare yourself for a musical feast!
Here is a fine site hosted by Chad Becks, teacher,
composer, performer - and my mentor: The Rosette Room'. Here you'll find helpful

a great web site in Indonesia, where he offers free downloads of his original compositions and arrangements. His music
sounds both familiar and fresh. His site contains links to many other resources for the guitarist. Check
out his biography and sign his guestbook when you visit.
Jubing's Free Classical Guitar Music Steve McWilliam has collected
many fine ragtime arrangements -- and much more -- on his web page. The format is TEF view. You can download entire collections as
ZIP files. For an example, check out my YouTube performance of 'Ragtime Souvenirs'.
Steve McWilliam Ragtime Guitar Giuseppe Torrisi
is a contemporary self-taught Italian guitarist, a graduate of Toto Schipa conservatory in
Lecce who has done post-graduate study with world-renowned guitarists A. Diaz, R. Chiesa and A. Minelli. On his site - GuitarFreeScores

TEF and GP6 formats, with audios in MIDI and MP3 formats. Highly recommended!
