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

'star group' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both natural objects as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps you can see an association between them that I can't see?

'guitarists and a rock' is the wordplay.
'and' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'rock' is an anagram indicator.
'guitarists'+'a'='guitaristsa'
'guitaristsa' is an anagram of 'SAGITTARIUS'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for sagittarius that I've seen before include "Nov-Dec zodiac sign" , "Heavenly archer" , "Zodiac constellation" , "house" .)
