Some stuff I've enjoyed learning or are on my to learn list, but when I got back into it the two I kept playing were electric wizard funeralopolis that led to more metal songs and creating riffs and calatayud vals that got me into more classical stuff like Bach

Electric wizard - dopethrone the slides on funeralopolis are very groovy and fun, sanguisugabogg and black Sabbath for more grungy grooves

Gojira, Pantera for some fun chugs and sheds and techniques to learn

Bach, toccata and fugue, bwv997 prelude, anh114 minuet in g are all pretty fun and sound awesome

Some old strumming classics like big rock candy mountain or big iron

Some faster Spanish style like Malaguena or learning the rasgueado techniques if you have access to a nylon string

Indie focused crumb, khruangbin, zero 7, Bonobo, boards of Canada, air, ratatat, Tycho I don't usually try to match the tone but just playing the melody or a bass line or something in the same range is fun
