Ron is a multi-instrumentalist from Gouda/The Netherlands. He plays bass, guitar and organ. After playing and teaching these instruments for many moons, he finally discovered the Stick. The Chapman Stick is an invention of Emmett H. Chapman of California. Playing this instrument felt like coming home and Ron started using (and abusing) it solo as well as in bands.

See the Chapman's Recommandation

Ron plays the 12-string Grand Stick/Grid in a 6/6 configuration using heavy gauge strings in standard tuning. The 6 melody strings are midi’d by a Roland GK2a pickup connected to a GR-1 synth. He also uses a "Patch of Shades", a pressure sensitive wah/volume pedal which crossfades to a Ibanez Tubescreamer. Ron’s new CD "Galaxy Gypsy" is now available directly from Ron or Stick Enterprise
