A guitar player that constantly plays unimpressive scales onstage, calls it soloing but really it's just wanking. Usually leads into ten minute "improvised" guitar "solos" of the player just going up and down scales. Musical masturbation. Even though the typical guitar wanker is not very creative, non-musical audience members may be very impressed by it all, but other musicians are not.
Guitar wankers can often be found in bar room blues bands and new bands with short set lists. Heavy Metal guitarists in general are wankers. Neil Young is a prime example of a guitar wanker.
