Here is interesting classical piece, Vivaldi, by Uli Roth, who gave us Tokyo Tapes with Scorpions. Thanks Uli, I love that double record!!!
The reason I am showing this because he has a 32 frets specially made guitar, you don't see that everyday:

By the way Uli wrote 4 classical pieces in the 90s....

This one is 4 guitarists playing the others' guitars, Vai and Co. It is a long song and the action starts around halfway. I saw this last year...

What are all you axe meisters' thoughts on acoustic players?
I'm particularly fond of Rik Emmett and Steve Howe.
Emmett's "Midsummer's Daydream" & "Fantasy Serenade" are, IMO, amazing pieces of work, and Howe's "Mood for a Day" is just classic!
And of course, Segovia. Just incredible...

I love all kind of GOOD music be it accoustic or electirc.
Let's mention another player Nuno Bettencourt of Extreme fame.
Here he is playing an accoustic piece called Midnight Express:
