I'm not a guru on this subject but its happened to me many times. I just usually go to the music store or catalog or friend and get another instrument to play or learn. Playing the sax has expanded my musicianship into another dimension that I never dreamed possible. Playing slide for awhile is another good way toget out of a rut. I had a famous flaminco player tell me once that all the riffs have all been played; BUT NOT BY YOU. I didn't play any music once for a year. I went fishin. There are many cool things to do besides playin guitar; I cant think of any right now though.
