As per my first post, try and play what you hear in your head at the same time as playing the guitar. Start with single note lines, and sing them too so as to match the pitch.
As you progress try and play chordal progressions of what you hear. This will develop your individual style without getting into ruts or sounding like anyone else. Remember that theory is only a tool. Once you grasp theory, use it to suit you.
Some say you have to know the theory rules before you break them. Fair enough. But music is a creative outlet that the mind generates. To get to involved in theory will sound to prescribed. Learn it then use it to your advantage. Hope that helps.
