On a more serious note, I guess anyone who does it for a living would be entitled to it, or possibly someone who has studied and taken graded exams.
Equally, somebody can be called a guitarist if they can get through a song unaided.
Everything else is just different flavours.
A fucking bad one.

Digitalscream is correct really.
I don't like referring to myself as a guitarist, 1,because i'm crap and very inconsistent, and 2, because I cant make any of my own music up! Just don't have the knowledge of the guitar/music (scales, chords, keys etc) or the creativity.
Id like to become a guitarist though!
But for now I'm a guy that plays a bit of guitar haha.
A gal that makes a poor attempt at playing a bit of guitar. I too yearn to be a guitarist
Being called a guitarist I can accept... I play the guitar.
However, someone tried to call me a musician the other day. I then spent the next couple of minutes denying that I was anywhere near good enough to be called a musician!
We just wanna hear how sexy we look with our best axe slung over the shoulder! Lol.
But for me, no matter how bad I play or how little I learn, if I feel good playing or jamming along to some 'tallica or zoning out playing random cool sounding chords and messing about with it, then I enjoy it. N If im enjoying it, I can always 'improve' another day!
