Surfacing on this list once in a while: questions about the Nanki
Music Library in Japan. Now they have put some of their books on line:

I don't see the mss available yet, but 500 printed works should keep
us happy for a while.

Quite a lot of typical English guitar music (simple arrangements of
songs) here in the 'Collection of English Secular Songs and some
instrumental pieces' n-7 (16).
Some are simply the tune transposed to C or F, some are more elaborate,
and some are duets.
The song is given first in full, with harmony and then in arrangement
for guittar/guitar sometimes also for, or as well as, German flute. Some
pieces go up to 10th fret (so presumably not intended for a capo) but
I'd guess they were sung with voice doubling.
