Ordered a custom Merus 7 string, It's an amazing instrument, sounds and plays better than i expected it to, absolutely gorgeous finish and very, very solid build quality, no blemishes anywhere, perfect fretwork, I took my fret rocker and checked, every fret was perfect. Very neat soldering in the electronics, and I had an excellent experience with the customer service. More available body shapes, pictures throughout the build process could be ways for Halo to improve further. Other than that, nothing that i can think of, all of my questions were answered by the great communication i had via email throughout the whole process.

I ordered a custom Salvus Semi-hollow, which I absolutely love. I'm able to dial up any guitar sound imaginable on any record with the mix of Tele and Strat pickups and humbucker along with the 25.5" neck and 24 frets. The workmanship is outstanding for the price and Jeff and his team are willing to do what it takes to make sure you're satisfied with what you receive. I would recommend Halo to a friend. My only two issues were the time it took to receive the guitar (roughly a year) and especially the lack of communication throughout the process. However, once I voiced my frustrations to Jeff he was extremely understanding and did whatever was within his power to ensure I was happy and informed the rest of the way. Thanks for bringing my dream custom guitar to life, I truly appreciate the effort and quality of the work you guys did!!

Ordered a V. Faster turn around time would be awesome but waiting for a superior product is well understood. Would I recommend Halo to a friend? Yes

I absolutely love this guitar! I just received it a little over a week ago and ever since I plugged it in, I haven't wanted to put it down. Not only does the guitar sound absolutely amazing, the design and all the little details done to it are perfect! I own a few guitars, but none of them even compare to this one! If anybody was looking into buying the best quality, I'd only recommend Halo. If you're seriously thinking about purchasing a guitar from Halo, do it!

It is without a doubt, the best guitar I have ever played. This is over 33 years of playing.
I didn't get specific about the neck dimensions when I placed the order and was wondering if I'd regret it. Turns out it is absolutely perfect.
The finish although quite different from the pic, was a nice surprise. Like how the spalted maple with the whitewashing type of finish brought out a faint aqua blue.
The EverTune bridge feels nice too.
The two minor things that I would have liked is the back plate be routed into the body like the one for the controls and that I thought the spalted maple would also be on the headstock as well . No big deal though as I'm more about the playability and the function.

I received my guitar a couple days ago and I can’t say enough good things about it. It’s hands down the best guitar I’ve ever played. You guys didn’t miss a thing! I’ve played guitar for many years and I’ve never played one of this quality. Thank you so much for all the hard work! I love the guitar so much, I plan to sell a few of my others and order another from Halo in the next few weeks. (Promise I’ll be less of a pain this time)

Custom Guitar Varial 6 - I love it! the guitar es way too much better than I thought. it's my dream come true. I totally made a good decition choicing Halo as my custom manufacturer. I'm looking forward to place my next order.

Maybe more headstocks models to choose! the actual ones are great but a few more will good!

Congratulations and keep working guys!

I ordered my first custom electric guitar with slight reluctance from a company I had never heard of in California. Wondering what the outcome would be and whether my order was ever going to get done was the question for the next few months. It was when I received my guitar in the mail and opened the case that it sent a shock wave of excitement through me. All the months of waiting were well worth the investment for a halo guitar. I couldn't have wished for a better instrument after playing around with it from the amazing inlay work, to the buckethead arcade killswitch and especially the playability of the instrument. Jeff Lee deserves standing ovation as this company provides superlative service meeting all your needs and problems. I will be a customer for life. I would recommend Halo to a friend. Improvements for Halo would be in wait time and painting.

Custom-Made Tenor Guitar; it's freaking awesome. It's great to know that I have a one-of-a-kind guitar that is truly built to suit my needs as a guitarist. I'd recommend Halo to a friend. It might be helpful to avail a side-view option for guitar previews... Might you consider availing resonator guitar options in the future?

I ordered a custom Merus 7. The craftsmanship is exponentially greater than any guitar I've purchased thus far. Everything was well done and worth the wait. I don't know how everything works in the process... and what exactly is on your plate, but I think reduced waiting time might improve your sales, because I know that I personally may not ever buy a factory guitar again. Primarily because the quality of the guitar is great and I am picky and don't like modifying factory guitars anymore because you start with imperfection anyway. Reduced wait, greatly encourages me to re-purchase!

This is the best customization tool for guitars on the internet! Despite saying that, I still think there are things that need to be added. A 'regular' SG shape would be really awesome. An Ibanez Iceman styled guitar would also be very appreciated. The scale length getting longer when you change it in the option would be nice. A way to save your custom builds or get some sort of overview of the ones that you have made would be very helpful, as a student I have very limited funds and am currently saving for a custom guitar and it is hard to keep track of exactly whats what. Some more colours and possibly a swirl option would be absolutely beautiful. Finally, some more headstock shapes would be greatly welcomed, especially since the removal of the Fender styled headstocks (which if it's possible, would be a great addition). Can't wait until the day I can finally afford one!

Why do you have to make the Classic and Royale headstock shapes disappear? Just removing them messed up the whole creator! YOU GUYS HAD TO RUIN IT! YOU GUYS HAD TO RUIN IT! WHY! WHY WHYYY! WHY DOES IT HAVE TO BE like this!? Why does it have to BE LIKE THIS! *heavy breathing* why? WHY WHY WHYYYYYYYYYYYY! Also, did you see my earlier review that I posted 18 days ago? I wanted more stuff added, not removed!

I love this tool, it's amazing!
But I do have one small question:
Is it possible to get a fender style headstock or more knobs and setting like a fende jagaur, because fender doesn't make a non custom shop custom jaguar, just food for thought, still love this tool!
