Etymology
Guitarist is made from guitar plus the ending -ist, which means 'a person who does something', as in artist or pianist. The word guitar came into English from Spanish guitarra, which comes from an old Greek instrument called kithara, so a guitarist is simply 'a person of the guitar' who plays the string instrument.
