Scott Joplin rags may be public domain, but are any guitar
arrangements of them? Or were you offering to do one?

I think what the example could do with, in order to show off Lilypond,
is fingering and some things like hammer-ons, pull-offs, harmonics,
bends and so on (probably not *all* of those in one example), which
does suggest something more modern than Bach.
