Would you all recommend taking classical guitar lessons to augment 'music knowledge' (sight reading, music theory)?

I've been 'rocking' on and off for 6 yrs plus, but I feel so limited with my shallow knowledge of music notation and theory (I read "tow-gay" at about 1 note per minute)....

Or should I ask the services of a respectable electric guitar mentor? (any to recommend?)

Appreciate any advice!

You gotta practice Sight Reading to be decent....only advice is to learn one postition first....get it down hard and cold....btw you gotta get a few books too probably 2 or 3 sight reading w/o tabs. Go through it w/o repeating any song...if its really hard...maybe 2 or 3 times but not more.
