Yes! Today we have a great list of pop songs specifically written for the nylon string guitar, classical guitar and Spanish guitar.
While you can also play these songs on an acoustic guitar, (and vice versa), they just sound profoundly better when you play them on a nylon string guitar. The classical, Spanish and nylon string guitars provide that warm and mellow sound that make these songs really come alive, and give them that special touch and feel.
In classical and flamenco music nylon strings are a prerequisite, but in pop music steel string is more common, so I thought it would be a good idea to put these songs in the spotlight and give them the attention they deserve.
Each song title in the list below contains a Youtube link to the original song. The “Chords” or “TABS” link will take you to the chords, tabs and lyrics and the “More Chords/TABS” link will show you the official transcribed TABS & Chords for more songs from the same artist.
