Guitarist
A guitarist is a musician who specializes in playing the guitar, a stringed instrument typically with six strings that produce sound when plucked or strummed. They use their fingers or a pick to press and strum the strings, manipulating pitch, tone, and rhythm to create music. Guitarists perform in various genres, from classical and jazz to rock, blues, and pop, often composing, improvising, or accompanying singers and other instruments. They may play solo or as part of a band or ensemble, contributing their skill and musical expression to a wide range of musical styles.
