I believe the answer is:

guitarist

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'e g harrison' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.

'intuitive about india playing sitar' is the wordplay.
'intuitive' becomes 'gut' (I've seen this in another clue).
'about' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'india' becomes 'i' (phonetic alphabet: alpha, bravo, charlie etc.).
'playing' is an anagram indicator.
'sitar' with letters rearranged gives 'taris'.
'i'+'taris'='itaris'
'gut' going around 'itaris' is 'GUITARIST'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for guitarist that I've seen before include "Axeman" , "Eg, Django Reinhardt" , "John Williams or Andres Segovia, say" , "Player of a particular stringed instrument" , "Musician" .)
