Aloha, everyone!
As you can see, my name actually is Ron, and I generally prefer to use my name on a forum or anything net concerned whenever possible to make it simple, open, and something I can remember, altho that is getting harder and harder!
I try to live in Ka'a'awa, my favorite spot on Oahu, and did for nearly 20 years, but currently live in Waialua, my 2nd favorite, and enjoy a home on the best stretch of beach on the island.
I've been on Oahu since '75, since making the best move of my life.
There's no place like Hawaii, even with all the many changes during my short time here.
Having grown up in So. Cal, in the best place and best time for my generation's tastes, I've since come to wish that I could have lived a double life to enjoy the people and things of Hawaii during that awesome and special time many years ago that I've come to love, and try to live today.
Aloha, really does mean something besides hello and goodbye.
My focus these day's is my various business ventures, and main interests are the (now) older styles of Hawaiian music (in particular, the Hawaiian steel guitar), which I have found to be as enjoyable and important as anything ever made, by both the known Waikiki greats, and (mostly) hidden backyard players. I've been very fortunate to become friendly and (occasionally) friends with some of the true legends of the genre, and treasure every moment that I have with these incredible people.
I hope to soon begin manufacturing and marketing a unique style of steel guitar, that if proving 'tone' worthy should give me a at least a footnote in the history books. I definitely do not crave the spotlight, but it's another way to promote something that is very dear to my heart.
You'll usually find me posting in the 'Jukebox' section, to give updates on the who's, what's, and where's of the steel guitar community. I've got 2 posts up so far, and I hope you also find interest in these things.
Ask me about steel guitar!
