Guitar Idol is an international online talent competition for unknown guitarists. The guitarists compete through 3 online heats and one online knock-out round, for a chance to fill 12 places to play at the London International Music Show Meanwhile, we are waiting for the Guitar Idol 8 winners. Diego Godoy is among the favorites. We then look for other samples. For the next challenges expect guys like Eugen Cabarra, Ilya Kamaldinov, Elliot Mane, Donato Caporale, Raphael Bianzeno .. and many others .[1]

The competition has been running since 2008.[2] The competition was postponed in 2010 due to the London International Music Show not having sufficient funds to go ahead with it that year.
