But I really don't see anything bad about it.....except that almost everything i play sounds country... :)

Wide you might try adding some new tec's like useing,
Arpeggio's plus raking to your style plus blue's Bends.
Try giving your country licks a jazz blues feel.
Also try some other scale modes this will change your,
country sound.

P:s if you play out of a minor key your not going to sound,
country,if you use some heavy Blues bending tec's.
