Hey everyone,

I’ve been a huge fan of Eric Clapton for years — his phrasing, tone and feel really shaped the way I play.

That said, I’m starting to feel a bit “stuck” in the usual pentatonic/blues box. I still love that sound, but I’d like to grow into something more harmonically interesting.

I’m looking for guitarists who:

  • go beyond just pentatonic licks
  • really outline chord changes when they solo
  • use more scales/modes and target notes
  • mix blues feeling with jazz language

Basically someone who still feels like blues, but with a richer harmonic approach.

Any suggestions? Could be classic or modern players!
