Current stone gets master confused (9)
I believe the answer is:
jetstream
'current' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'stone gets master confused' is the wordplay.
'stone' becomes 'jet' (gemstone).
'gets' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'confused' is an anagram indicator.
'master' with letters rearranged gives 'stream'.
'jet' placed inside 'stream' is 'JETSTREAM'.
(Another definition for jetstream that I've seen is " High winds".)
I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
