'tricky with this' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.

'i guess id may be' is the wordplay.
'may be' indicates an anagram.
'i'+'guess'+'id'='iguessid'
'iguessid' is an anagram of 'DISGUISE'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for disguise that I've seen before include "Cover" , "front" , "Alter appearance to conceal identity" , "Conceal (a feeling)" , "Conceal (one's identity)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
