Stills used mostly a mixture of minor & major pentatonic licks from the blues rock vocabulary. So minor pentatonic with a flat 5th & major pentatonic with a flat 3rd. He'd occasionally add in chromatic notes inside the pentatonic boxes as passing tones.

I'm not sure what your skill level is. If you can already play single note lead lines, then you might enjoy learning some basic vocabulary licks like these that Anders teaches in the Rock course.

Once you get some of that type of thing down you can use it to figure out Stills's licks & imitate his style. Hope that helps!
