guitar track

Six-string audio channel

A guitar track is a recorded layer of guitar performance, typically one component in a multitrack recording.

Producers might record rhythm and lead guitar as separate tracks, then adjust each independently during mixing: We need to boost the guitar track in the chorus.

The term applies to both the recording process and the isolated audio file.
