Bass Guitarist 

1) The often overlooked person in the band, even though they provide melodic stability. He/She may play via plucking, picking, slapping, tapping, or any variation thereof. The bassist may play on a bass guitar with strings numbering from four to twelve (eight, ten, and twelve are harmonics similar to a twelve stringed guitar.) and in tunings ranging from low A to E. The male of this species usually has a larger stature than the rest of the band.

2) The person seen carrying the overly intoxicated guitarist onto the tour bus.

3) The bane of the sound technician.

4) The person that usually stands stage right, not bouncing like an imbecile.

guitarist 

one who plays the guitar...well...not someone who has picked it up by buying the cheapest thing they could find and learn three songs which they play with annoying repetetiveness...one who actually knows the scales chords and musical theory ( the circle or cycle of fifths etc.)
i dont know who some of these cocky authors are but not all guitarists are rude, and not all guitarists of any genre suck hendrix althought not from a musical background could play from intuition and there are hundreds of great guitarists , paco de lucia Al DiMeola john petrucci, steve vai, eric clapton, jimmy page, carlos santana stevie ray vaughan, eric johnson, yngwie malmsteen, michael hedges, chet atkins, michael angelo batio, george harrison, b.b. king, robert cray, john mayer, buddy guy, bo diddley, joe walsh, joe perry...and im stopping just because im almost out of room... if you recognize 90% of those you are most likely a guitarist or an avid listener

Guitarist 

One who plays the guitar... well. No one cares enough to call you a guitarist if you suck, they'll just say that you play the guitar. You have to have some sort of skill level to be adressed as a guitarist.
Eddie Van Halen, Yngwie Malmsteen, Slash, Randy Rhodes, Carlos Santana, Joe Satriani, Kirk Hammett, George Lynch, and Ted Nugent. THOSE are guitarists.

Guitartistry 

A combination of the words Guitar and Artistry.
Used in reference to someone's guitar playing skills.

Can be used in most situations.
I don't know where Dave got that guitartistry. He was all over the place during that solo.

Susan needs to work on her guitartistry. I think my ears are bleeding.

Guitarist's Manicure 

When you only clip the nails of the four fingers that hold the strings down, cause you're to lazy to cut them all, and you just wanna play guitar.
