Songs for nylon string guitar
KharBevNor:
Besides, I think this guy wants fingerpicking, whereas that whole style is more oriented towards strumming chords.
That said, if you want to try some strumming, there's a lot of good modern folk standards, like Universal Soldier, Streets of London, and a good deal of Dylans stuff.

Mostly simple chords, and sounds great once you get it down.

Best. Song. Evar. But it just doesn't sound right on a nylon-stringed acoustic, y'know? Gotta have those Martin .012-.052s on there. And it's the same deal with "Bron-Yr-Aur" and "Bron-Y-Aur Stomp" by Led Zeppelin, it can be done, but it just ain't right on nylons. :B
KharBevNor:
I disagree. But it does sound better if you use a plectrum rather than your fingers.
Thrillho:
Listening to it, it definitely sounds nylon strung to me.
It might only sound right with a plectrum because Gilmour might have used his nails to fingerpick it. I fingerpick it myself (not with nails).
ALoveSupreme:
I'm not too concerned with overall original timbre, just want something that will sound nice and soothing on the strings. Thanks for all the suggestions, guys!
