hello, i'm new here

my name is michael steele. i play,sing,write and record. oh, and i build too.

this group caught my eye because i'm really into recording my own stuff (and others too).

when i use CBG's on a recording i really want to capture the soul and vibe of the instrument.

i look forward to trading recording and production "chops" with ya'all.

Myke
