Step into the world of Jazz, Rock, Country, Blues, Funk, Bluegrass, etc. with Ron Tegeler on the Flat-Top Acoustic Guitar. The variety of tunes is almost endless... Ron is truly inspired by his acoustic guitar hero "Tommy Emmanuel" and tries to emulate his style of exciting instrumentals and beautiful melodies.
After Ron heard Tommy Emmanuel play, he never looked back. Ron purchased a new acoustic guitar and acoustic guitar amp and set off learning as much as he could from Tommy's online videos and master classes. The first song Ron learned was Tommy's version of Classical Gas, which is still one of the most popular tunes in Ron's setlist. Ron even found his way to one of Tommy's Guitar camps held in Nashville Tennessee, which was an inspiring and motivational event. Today, Ron has nearly a dozen Tommy Emmanuel arrangements as part of his normal setlist, which the audiences continue to enjoy. Tommy also inspired Ron to start writing & performing a number of original songs on the acoustic guitar. Ron is currently in the studio with the hopes of completing his second internationally released album dedicated to the acoustic guitar.
If you have not heard Ron live at one of his gigs, you are missing out on a unique experience. His style of instrumental arrangements and variety of music is unlike most other acoustic guitar players performing in the region. Please check out the events page on this website to catch one of Ron's upcoming solo acoustic guitar performances.
Does Ron only play instrumentals, you may ask? Absolutely not! Ron still likes to sing some of his favorite classic tunes from the days when he was on the road, traveling & performing across the country. It's not unusual to hear Ron belt out the vocals to a Doobie Brothers tune or maybe an old classic country favorite.
For Ron, playing the acoustic guitar has become an alternative way to express himself musically, yet keeping his jazz influence as the basis of his new acoustic performances. Tommy Emmanuel essentially became the bridge to this new path of self expression.
Please contact Ron if you would like to inquire about hiring him for an Acoustic Solo Performance.
