Not quite guitar, but Mozart did write two songs and the famous Canzonette from Don Giovanni for mandolin accompaniment. Beethoven left four miniatures for mandolin and keyboard; Paganini, three: two with guitar accompaniment and one solo. Hummel left a marvelous 3-movement concerto and 3-movement sonata for mandolin. In spite of his obscurity, Hoffman's mandolin music, several sonatas and a concerto, is of good quality. It was a good time for mandolin, and the guitar's good time was just around the bend.
