Book of instrumental arrangements of pop classics?

ThePrettyDamned

I fancy doing more hybrid/fingerpicked guitar and particularly arranging chart songs for fun. I think it'll break me out of a creative rut (rock rock rock) and teach me some new techniques as I go. Can anyone recommend a hybrid or fingerpicked book that has arrangements of chart hits (old and new) that can be played on a single guitar?

Not a book but try Lick N Riff on youtube, that's all fingerstyle arrangements.

It's not exactly this, and the arrangements are ... quite hard, but Toru Takemitsu's 12 Songs has arrangements of some Beatles songs, Somewhere Over the Rainbow, etc.

They are beautiful arrangements, and a lot nicer than a lot of the finger-style arrangements you see of these kind of tune.

e.g.

And if you want to play a tango (rather than some pop), this is Dyens arrangement is badass:
