Judging Criteria:
Story & Authenticity — 60%
Why you, why this guitar, why now. We’re looking for the real, honest story behind your music — the journey, the struggle, the heart. This is the biggest part of your score. We’re rewarding genuine people with genuine stories, not the most polished pitch.
Musical Skill — 40%
Your playing. Technical ability, feel, and musicality, judged from the track you submit.
Each judge scores both categories from 1 to 10, and the weighting above is applied to find your final score.
The Story Behind the Artist

Judges include respected industry professionals like
8-time Grammy-nominated producer Roger Ryan
