Musician — one with a racket (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

fiddler

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'musician' is the first definition.
(fiddler can informally mean a violinist)

'one with a racket' is the second definition.
(fiddle can mean a racket or fraudulent scheme)

(Other definitions for fiddler that I've seen before include "Violinist (on the 11?)" , "Great musical ''....... on the roof''" , "Type of crab; one on the Roof" , "String player" , "Violinist (colloq.)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
