Just a response though,"copying" other guitarists is nothing to be ashamed or afraid of. I believe it was B b King who said "you gotta borrow a little".
I think it is great to be influenced by your heros, so long as you make it your own and hide you influences.
But thanks for the tips guys, I already feel a bit of progress...Please keep the tips coming.
