This is my arrangement of "Strawberry Fields Forever," the Beatles' 1967 single (and one of my Beatles favorites).
This arrangement is heavily inspired by Laurence Juber's arrangement from his fantastic "LJ Plays the Beatles" album, but I believe he plays that one in an open tuning, and open tunings frighten me.
This is an attempt at a note-for-note cover of Django Reinhardt's "Improvisation #2," as it was originally recorded in 1938.
For comparison, this video has the original Django version as background music (although it is cut off at the end):

This is my own arrangement of the original Super Mario Bros. World 1 theme song. Every YouTube guitarist has to record this at some point, right? :-)
Guitar players, I apologize in advance that I have no transcriptions or tabs of this arrangement. It's my own version, and I'd rather play guitar or record another video than spend time transcribing.
My favorite jazz standard, done as a solo acoustic guitar piece. Apologies for the audio clipping at 2:02.

Hello all! This is my acoustic guitar arrangement of "Buddy Holly" by Weezer. This is a classic song from my high-school days.
For more of my '90s acoustic arrangements, check out my video of "Interstate Love Song."
This is my gypsy-jazz arrangement of the theme from the first level of Super Mario Brothers 2. This song works quite well in this style!

Note that the MP3 is a different take, recorded more than two years before I made this video.

This is my arrangement of the "Inspector Gadget" TV show theme song. I noticed YouTube has a few electric-guitar versions but doesn't have any acoustic versions.
Here's a solo-guitar arrangement of "Tears" by Django Reinhardt.
The introduction is taken from Pat Donohue's acoustic-guitar version (highly recommended!), which in turn was taken from a piano introduction from one of the original Django recordings.
