I wanted to build a double neck bass since a long time, so I ordered a double neck replacement bass body. I already have the bass necks at home. I did a mockup using Photoshop and the Halo team helped me to bring my design to life! I'm actually doing the assembly and I can tell you that it will be really great !
TJ Baritone, I absolutely LOVE it! This is my fourth Halo, you guys just keep on getting better!
I love it. The finish is fantastic and the construction is spot on. I don’t think I’ve ever had a guitar show up that I didn’t need to fix the intonation, action, and tuning. Everything was spot on! The neck feels great!
No complaints! Customer service was the best I've ever had.
Phenomenal guitar. Excellent craftsmanship and just sounds killer. Great communication from Halo guitars. Highly recommend
The ONLY thing wrong with it is the back color was supposed to be blue, with black burst. They did the turquoise with black and blue burst instead. (The front colors) Still nicer than my Fender Sixty-Six.
Keep up the good work! I love the way the guitars play and people love their looks whenever I use them. Super happy with the help/response on questions about ordering and the quality of the guitar. On to the next! ;)
This guitar is just beautiful. Just had to tune up the Salvus and enjoyed its fast neck and wonderful playability with my large hands. No hiss with pickups and wonderful tones throughout their range. Surpasses playability of my Fender Tele with its 42mm neck nut width. Frets are finished off beautifully resulting in a silky smooth feel and no string buzzes the entire length of the neck. The finish is exactly what I wanted, simple but elegant. What a super job by your set-up team did on this guitar. Right out of the case this guitar is ready to be played and enjoyed. Many thanks to you and the Halo team for providing a guitar that easily competes with and even surpasses name brand guitars costing two to three times more.
Absolutely LOVING this guitar! It looks incredible and plays beautifully! All customization came exactly as I designed. The materials and quality of the work are great. Inlays, fretwork, and electronics all seem to be done excellently. I love the custom body shape and striking finish look amazing, the neck-through constriction is smooth, and the BKP Juggernauts sound perfect. Incredible work. It looks and sounds awesome. Also, though lead times were large, the guitar came in earlier than expected.
CONS: (very minor!)
I was a bit surprised to find that the cavity cover for the floyd rose isn’t inset and doesn’t sit flush with the body of the guitar (and was also left unpainted), and so the back of the guitar isn’t as comfortable or aesthetic as it could be, but is otherwise phenomenal and quite beautiful.
The top is absolutely beautiful, but for the price point, perhaps have an even higher grade top wood would make sense. I also expected a more noticeable and less subtle ‘carved top’ (as this one looks very good but is nearly flat).
I absolutely LOVE this guitar. I would have given 4.5 stars if I could, because it is incredible, high quality, and certainly deserves more than four stars, but for nearly $5k, it should be flawless and mind-blowing quality.

Since it came with everything I could've needed, I probably will never buy another guitar again.
This guitar is seriously awesome! Halo took the time to set it up properly and I love the attention to detail with this guitar. Very pleased!
Got the guitar ahead of schedule and am very pleased with it. Great professional looks and playability. One thing that stands out to me is that your setup makes a noticeable difference in playability compared to the Warmoth creations setup by me. I'm playing faster and easier on this guitar. This guitar also is my favorite of the four Halo guitars made by you.
I just tested the bass out and it is so versatile and to my specifications... I think this is probably the best bass I've ever purchased and will not need another bass anytime soon. Heck, I'm thinking about selling most of the collection that I have since this thing is so good. The tones, the capabilities about how to play with it, the overall style it offers...
Halo really knocked it out of the park.

Custom Salvus. I love it, beautiful build and it sounds great.
Amazing instrument...
The guitar is fantastic! The wide neck is amazing, I’ve never been able to play the way I want to on any other electric.
Awesome guitar and very pleasant interactions with the staff. Thanks!
Its 'alright'. The worst part of it is the shoddy paint tape edges. Fret edges are a little rough and fretboard binding has divot marks where the fret edges are. Couple dust nibs on the back of the neck.
The finish is actually 'Matt' not 'Satin'. My $300 LTD has MUCH better fretwork.
Otherwise the guitar is good. Without the evertune, Fishman pickups, Graphtech nut and 27" scale I'd have requested a refund, the 5% discount wouldn't have been enough to compensate for these flaws.
After I purchased the guitar I was told there were only B stocks left. I was told I'd receive a 10% discount because of this.
I thought about it and agreed, then got a reply saying the discount would be changed to 5% due to applying a discount code and discounts couldn't be combined. Wasn't happy with this, this isn't my issue they didn't check the order details.
Asked for pics before it was shipped, I never received them.
The guitar is OK but I wasn't overly happy with the service.

I dreamed of a matching GVK6 and eventually contacted Halo. Jeff Lee responded quickly and did leg work to check Halo new old stock. Within 2 days Jeff hooked me up!!! I have my matching GVK 6…. To finish the orderJeff handed the purchase off to Brandon Benedict who carried out the SUPERIOR CUSTOMER SERVICE that Jeff started and had my beast to me in less than a week of payment! The customer service was outstanding with every question I had! Thank you Halo Guitars, Jeff Lee and Brandon Benedict!
It is a true thing of beauty. Very well made. I love the tone as well (better than my Gretch Country Gentleman).
The solid maple top and the Lolar pickups have a warm / twangy tone. Perfect for jazz or country.
The wider neck is great for the fingerstyle and jazz pieces I usually play.
My compliments to the builder. This will be a treasured possession for the rest of my life.

I ordered a custom six string guitar and I love it. My guitar is the coolest, sleekest thing I’ve ever seen. My family loves it.
I ordered a 2021 Headless Octavia with 24" scale length, 1 7/8" nut, Hipshot headless bridge system and standard Halo pickups. So, far I love it.
The guitar is over my expectation. Nice fret works, no buzz and very well balanced (no neck dive) ! 6 starts to the Halo team. The communication with Halo (Bruce and Brandon) were quick and nice. Cheers :)
