Guitars, Supplies, Sheet Music
If you’re looking for quality hand crafted guitars, I highly recommend Armin Kelly of Guitars International in Shaker Heights. I’ve sent my students to him for years, and he’s always treated them well. Many of the best players in the greater Cleveland area have bought their guitars from Armin. The reason is simple: he carries the best.

If you’re looking for a free online archive of classical guitar music, try Delcamp Classical Guitar. It has over 1,300 listings of public domain guitar music, much of it from the 19th century. You’ll find, for example, the guitar works of Aguado, Carcassi, Coste, Giuliani, Mertz, Regondi, Sor, and many others.
