Highly Recommended Method & Technique Books
Sight Reading for the Classical Guitar, Level I-III, and Level IV-V – Form, phrasing, dynamics, and reading skills. These are sight reading books more than method books so don’t expect much in the way of explanation. I use these with my students alongside my method books.
Scale Pattern Studies by Aaron Shearer – Very comprehensive, scales and melodic sight reading. Slightly numbing but does the job better than any other book. Do it 10min a day, forever.
Pumping Nylon by Scott Tennant – Exercises & workouts, memorable and popular. This book is great for students who want to dive into real technique practice for the first time. It’s by no means comprehensive but it’s manageable and memorable. Also: Pumping Nylon in TAB
The Bible of Classical Guitar Technique by Käppel – 245 pages of exercises and excellent text advice, photos, explanations, and tons of exercises. Maybe too much content for some people causing numbness. Use sticky tabs, it helps.
Iznaola on Practicing: A Manual for Students – Small, concise, technical, how to practice well.

More Recommended Methods & Technique Books
The Shearer Method (Shearer/Kikta/Hirsh) – See my full article on all four books. Book 1 – Foundations / 2 – Developments / 3 – Learning the Fingerboard / 4 – Harmony. This is the most comprehensive method series currently available for beginner to intermediate classical guitar. The books give you a combined 830 pages of advice, theory, exercises, repertoire, and more.
Shearer Classical Guitar Technique, Vol.1 – Good for beginners, lots of info and easy sight-reading. This an old book but it’s been updated by Kikta.
Kitharologus: The Path to Virtuosity – Difficult but very, very good. Not for the faint-hearted. Starts from the beginning but gets outrageously difficult. The real deal.
Classical Guitar Technique (Part1) by Stanley Yates – Text heavy but lots of great info. Halfway between a method on how to play technique as well as many exercises. For those who want tons of information.
Classical Guitar Technique (Part2) by Stanley Yates – as above but continued.
Giuliani’s complete studies and exercises – Studies but also his exercises and 120 arpeggios.
The Art of Classical Guitar Playing by Charles Duncan – An informative book with good ideas on ‘functional tension’ and more. Yates’ book probably takes over in terms of a modern version of this book.
A Tutor for the Renaissance Lute (Poulton) – Reading Renaissance lute tablature, techniques, and performance practices. This is a lute book not guitar (for advanced players).
The Techniques of Guitar Playing by Seth F. Josel & Ming Tsao – Modern and historical guitar techniques geared toward composers. For advanced students interested in contemporary music. Read my Full Review.

Anthologies, Graded, & Fun Collections
Royal Conservatory (RCM) Classical Guitar Series 2018 Edition
Frank Koonce Anthologies – Multiple Volumes, lots of great works, high quality editor.
Noad Guitar Anthologies – Multiple Volumes, an excellent start to anyone’s library.
Easy Classics for Guitar (Nadal) – Intermediate, has some good stuff.
Guitar Music of Spain Vol. 1 by Calatayud – Spanish style, Easy to Intermediate, nice collection.
Andres Segovia – 20 Sor Studies – Very popular but difficult, meh, I’m not into it…
Play Flamenco Guitar with Juan Martin (Notes + TAB) – Fun and gets right to repertoire!
The Beatles for Classical Guitar (Notes and Tab) – Recommended. These are great but are firmly in the intermediate and late intermediate level. I love the arrangement of Norwegian Wood in this book.
Easy Beatles Arrangements for Classical Guitar (Notes + TAB) – Recommended. These are significantly easier than the above book but are still very full sounding.
John Lennon for Classical Guitar (Beekman) – 15 songs in notation and tab. I bet these are good, I haven’t tried it but Beekman is solid.
Fingerpicking Irish Songs – Some of these are pretty good, has melody above.
Fingerpicking Jazz Standards (Notes + TAB) – some good.

Theory – It’s needed, what can I say?
RCM Theory Books (Amazon) – I recommend these RCM boosk with a teacher to gain a real understanding of music theory. It’s slow, I know, but important. For more of just an overview or self study you could try the Berklee Theory Book or the Hal Leonard Music Theory for Guitar but it’s hard to retain the info in overview books.

Free Facsimile Sheet Music for Classical Guitar

Facsimiles here are period publications, that is, published in the time of the composer or thereabouts. These public domain scores are great for reference and sometimes plenty good enough to perform from. I often base my editions off of these as a starting point that is close to the composer or editor intentions.
