1st Position Study Books
Hello. After several years away from playing, I have decided to rekindle my love of classical guitar. I studied the basics of 1st position in high school, and am looking to explore 1st position more thoroughly before moving on.
Are there any good books that are simply filled with pieces for 1st position, that have both quantity and quality when it comes to selection? Id like something with at least 30 pieces, that range from beginner to intermediate 1st position difficulty. I've surfed the web for books, but it is hard to tell which ones might suit my preferences.
Thank you in advance for your time and consideration. I look forward to hearing from you.

Hi JW,
You might try the "100 Grade Studies" book by Fred Noad. Although it goes into more difficult studies there are numerous "first position" pieces that sound suitable for your needs.
Kind regards,
