SOLD OUT

One of the most ferocious models from the Halo vault is back for an extremely limited run! Used by the some of heaviest players alive like Mike Riggs of Rob Zombie/Scum of the Earth fame, the Seraphim-8 offers a super tight attack and focused articulation across all strings with a set of EMG 909X pickups for maximum detonation and a colossal sonic spectrum of tone. Starting with an Ash body and topped off with Spalted Maple for an eerie profile, this multiscale monster features the fan-favorite Seraphim shape along with a 7-Piece Maple/Walnut neck capable of conjuring any spooky shade of metallic voodoo you throw at it.

Standout Features Include:

  • 8 String Multiscale Neck, 25.5" - 28"
  • EMG 909X Humbucker Set
  • Spalted Maple Top and Headstock
  • Neck Through Body Construction


* Every Halo instrument is set up and inspected by one of our pro guitar techs in Cupertino, California prior to shipping so your guitar arrives optimized for playability: strings are fresh, frets are level, action is low, and intonation is on.

Since I opened it I haven't been able to put it down! Halo can improve in better marketing! You guys are great, this guitar is beautiful, and your full customization service is unlike anything I've seen before! Only thing I would say is that it's a little hard to find you guys, and there isn't a whole lot of information about you outside of your website. Keep doing what you're doing!

The guitar came in on Saturday and so far I have absolutely no complaints, it is everything I expected and more. There was slight shipping damage, the plastic 3-way switch knob was cracked off but I had replacements laying around from a previous restoration,other than that I have not had any issues. It plays great and the quality seems fantastic. You guys have been a pleasure to purchase from and I will definitely be recommending you to others! Besides the quality of the guitar I appreciate the customer service and I would say 5/5

This is a masterful tool of its craft. I'm utterly grateful to be using this in my arsenal for my new creative process. It is absolutely stunning to look at and even more graceful to hear when I play it. This guitar fits me like a glove. It has power and punch to deliver those deep lows and has plenty capacity to play beautiful and elegant softs. I will cherish this piece and use it to it's full capability. Thank you! I give it a 6/5!

I have absolutely fallen in total love with my Halo Seraphim-8. I love its fanned fret/multi-scale design. The guitar arrived in Maryland from California perfectly in tune and intonated; and it was sent during the middle of summer. The way the guitar is set up with its low action and 74-10 gauge strings feels great! The pickups are perfectly voiced for metal, and deliver a concise, clear, and articulate tone even when heavily distorted and/or drop tuned! I usually play in F# standard, but occasionally drop the F# down to E (a la Animals As Leaders), and the Seraphim delivers high quality tone and has met my demands as a player of a variety of genres from jazz to extreme metal! The neck and fretboard feel great, even though I have small hands, I am able to easily access all strings/notes/frets with ease. I really cannot say enough about my adoration for this instrument!

Advantages: Multi-scale/fanned fret design
Great action and intonation
Easy access to all frets
Neck feels great

Disadvantages: Pick-ups may be too hot for some, but can be lowered to make them cooler
Some may not like the non-traditional body shape
