This question is a little tricky because your question is a bit misleading!. Are you asking where Middle C actually sounds on the guitar, or where it's written!?

If you are asking where it sounds, then you can find it on
2/1 Second string, first fret
3/5 Third String, fifth fret
4/10 Fourth string, Tenth Fret
5/15 Fifth String, Fifteenth Fret
6/20 Sixth String, Twentieth Fret (not accessible on some nylon sring, classical style guitars)

If you are asking what note you would actually play when a middle C is written in Guitar score (keeping in mind that the guitar actually sounds one octave lower than it is written - that is, it is a transposing instrument)

If you see a middle C on a sheet of guitar music or write a middle C down yourself, you would go to the following places on the
fingerboard / Fretboard
5/3 - Fifth String!. Third Fret
6/8 - Sixth String, Eighth Fret

I hope that this helps!.

THE MIDDLE C is located on 5 out of 6 strings!.

Here are all the spots, starting with the most common, FIRST POSITION middle C and continuing up the neck!.
F = FRET

1F, 2nd string
3F, 3rd string
8F, 4th string
15F, 5th string
20F, 6th string

Hope it helps!. also a writing tip: a guitarist will probably not have/want to play the C on the 15th fret, and will usually never have to play the one on the 20th!. Overall, try to keep the melodies for guitar in as isolated of a spot as possible!. (C3 to C6 is usually discouraged!.)

The middle C on a guitar is one octave below that of the piano's middle C!. On the guitar, middle C is found on the fifth string (A), third fret, and the sixth string (E), eighth fret!.

The piano's middle C pitch is located on the second string (B), first fret and other locations up the fretboard that match the pitch tone!.

Guitar music is recorded and played in the treble clef (G), but sounded in pitch in the bass clef (F)!.
