News: Guitarist of the Year 2018 final live in London



Since April this year, we’ve been on the hunt for the best amateur guitarists around the world, to see who should be crowned Guitarist of the Year 2018. The winner of the event, sponsored by PRS, will join the ranks of previous winners including Guthrie Govan and Dave Kilminster.

Hundreds of entry videos were submitted, before standout performances were sent to star judges Joe Satriani, Paul Gilbert and Mark Tremonti.

Having completed the unenviable task of selecting finalists (based on originality, technicality, musicality and feel), we can now reveal the three guitarists who will battle for the Guitarist of the Year title, live at the UK Guitar Show in London on Saturday 29 September.

In addition to the prestigious title, the victor will also walk away with a beautiful PRS USA Custom 24 in McCarty Sunburst, amongst other fantastic prizes.
