Recommended Online Classical Guitar Resources:
Classclef - Lots of free tab and music. Lots of errors too, but hey...it’s free!
Delcamp - One of the oldest, if not the oldest, online communities for classical guitar. This forum is massive to say the least. Lots of good stuff here if you are willing to dig in.
Classical Guitar Shed - More free tabs and sheet music. Betterquality than classclef but it does want you to buy stuff.
Classical Guitar (reddit.com) - A really nice and supportive (as best I can tell) subreddit devoted to classical guitar. A lot of people posting videos of them playing pieces they are working on. I have learned about quite a few wonderful pieces I’d never heard of from here.
