Words that rhyme with Guitarist
The phonetic facts first: guitarist is three-syllable, the rhyme-bearing vowel is the clipped /ɪ/, and the line softens into a fricative tail. The lyric earns it by placement, not by selection. If you came here looking for what rhymes with guitarist, here's the shape of it: perfect rhymes simply aren't available, no near-perfect family slants exist for this one, while the assonance well is bottomless. Its lyric role is a quotidian anchor. The slant pool is huge enough that you'll never need to repeat a rhyme.

Why guitarist rhymes the way it does
Guitarist is built around the high /ɪ/ (/ɪ/); it's three-syllable and tails through a fricative. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 2 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 108, assonance 8,079, and consonance 33. That's a narrow strict column with a very deep slant well beneath it. Modern songwriting reads those slants as rhymes; the ear has been trained on them for a century. Practical: skim the strict column first and pick the two or three matches you can sing without thinking. Then move to assonance for the in-between lines. Guitarist reads as more memorable when the strict matches are reserved for the line endings that matter most.
