Comment on "A guitarist who's also an astronaut" sounds more impressive than "An astronaut who plays the guitar", despite both meaning the same thing.

It’s because being an astronaut is an actual job you commit to or you won’t get to do your job. Guitarist can mean anything from picking up the guitar once a month to being lead guitarist in the best band of the world.

One is a job description, the other one can be just a hobby or a full blown job.
