Luis Miguel Gil (born: July 10, 1997), better known online as GuitarHeroStyles, ItsAdvyStyles, AdvyStyles, Guittarín or simply Guitar or Advy, is a Spanish gaming YouTuber known for his Geometry Dash and formerly Guitar Hero videos. He is the second Geometry Dash YouTuber to reach over 1 million subscribers, after the game's developer RobTopGames.
History
Back when he first started YouTube, Guitar would upload videos of himself playing Guitar Hero in 2011, hence his channel name, GuitarHeroStyles. He would then upload his first Geometry Dash video on March 17, 2014, which was him beating the 12th main level in the game, Theory of Everything. He continued to upload videos of the other main levels in the game before he began to upload videos showcasing user levels in Geometry Dash.
On July 5, 2015, Guitar made a second channel called 'GuitarGames' where he uploads gaming videos that are not related to Geometry Dash, such as Minecraft and Five Nights at Freddy's gameplays.
On November 15, 2017, Guitar reached 1 million subscribers and received his golden play button the following month.
As of 2021, Guitar continues to upload videos showcasing Geometry Dash levels and videos where he beats them. He also uploads videos where he gives news about Geometry Dash updates.
Controversy

On October 24, 2021, Pan and a few members of the Geometry Dash Demonlist maintenance team exposed Guitar's inappropriate behavior towards women. In a Twitter post, Pan states that he and a few members of the Demonlist maintenance team, including Pauze and Hado, were informed about this behavior and reached out to various victims about their relationship with Guitar.[1]
On October 24, 2022, Guitar published a Twitter thread where he defends himself, showing screenshots as proof to invalidate the allegations.[2]
