You guys know of any? A lot of googling has shown me people playing pieces, but I can’t find sheet music or any tabs for classical or acoustic guitar with >6 strings. Help a brother out!

@Given To Fly do you know of any titles?
Those are really cool sites! Of course, I haven't played classical guitar in yeeeears, so the idea of reading actual music (and not tabs) is daunting. Mainly, I want to play ERG pieces that are not chugging on the low string. And it seems that much of metal is that. I'm down for Jazz or classical, but it looks like there isn't a lot of contemporary stuff out there. These are good resources, but I wish there was a site where people arranged piano tunes, etc. for ERG instruments, and posted up the tabs/sheet music.Yes.

Fantaisie Hongroise by Johann Kasper Mertz has several low A’s that everybody raises an octave. No one would start playing a 7 or 8 string guitar over them today, but if you already have the instrument to do it, you might as well. The piece is well known in the classical guitar world.
What have you seen being played?
IMSLP is basically music in the public domain. It is a good resource.
https://www.sheerpluck.de/ - this website is a great source for information regarding contemporary guitar music. When I say great, I mean the most useful website on the internet.
