William "Willy/Willie" McTavish is the bassist for the Scottish hair metal band Love Fist in the Grand Theft Auto series. He is one of the few characters that appear in both the 3D Universe and HD Universe, appearing as a minor character in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City and Grand Theft Auto V.

3D Universe[]
Background and Events of Grand Theft Auto: Vice City[]
Willy is the only member of Love Fist who doesn't wear black gloves. According to Jezz Torrent, Willy wears women's underwear. Because he doesn't have a dedicated model like his bandmates, he is usually absent from cutscenes and makes his only "appearance" in GTA Vice City during the events of Publicity Tour, although only his voice can be heard.
By 1992, he had left Love Fist as he is missing from the the billboard for their album Clear the Custard in Los Santos, San Andreas. In reality, this is due to the fact that he doesn't have a character model, as the Love Fist members in the billboard are models from GTA Vice City.
HD Universe[]
Events of Grand Theft Auto V[]
Willy (mis-spelled Willie in credits and on Bleeter) makes his first physical appearance in Grand Theft Auto V, during a Strangers and Freaks mission where Trevor Philips must knock out his gold tooth and bring it to an English tourist named Nigel as a souvenir. Willy was performing with Love Fist at Tequi-la-la in Vinewood. Furthermore, his gilet is similarly embroidered with the Love Fist logo on the back. Willy is also killable in this mission, and if Trevor does so, he will say "oops, sorry Love Fist fans".
He will post a bleet on the Bleeter website after the mission, commenting about Trevor's assault. This bleet appears regardless of whether the player chose to kill him in the mission or not.
According to one of the groupies, Willy has previously had a hip arthroplasty.
