Did you guys remove the Traditional and Royale headstock due to copyright issues? If so, it's a shame since I had something lined up with one of those designs. Other than that, great builder and hopefully that issue is resolved!

The guitar build tool is ridiculous! There are so many options and the graphic representation looks great! I've been building a couple guitars because as things are going, I'll be able to put in an order for one your guys' custom built guitars soon so I want to see what I would end up choosing as my "dream guitar"! I've heard nothing but great things about this company and can't wait to put through an order! Hopefully the service is as good as they say and can't wait to work you all!

This guitar sounds great!
I may want to order the same Semi-Hollow with more openings on the core walls inside and better strap pins but that may be just waste of money.
Let me wait for news about your arched top version.
Thanks again!

Why not give us more colour options (gold, yellow-green, cyan, magenta, dark red, etc)? Because I really want more of those. While you're at it, why not give us an option to have a different tuning? Also, more fret count options, like for example 26, 28, 29? Also, can we have the option to have the fret count vary, for example, 24 on the lowest string to 29 on the highest? More scale length options would be good too, like 26.5", 29.4", 24", etc. Also, more body shape options, like a non-offset SG? For me, the Lazarus is more of an ESP Viper than an SG. As for the name, maybe SGH? More headstock shapes too would be appreciated, like the Flying V headstock. The name could be something starting with a V.

So... I'd been eyeing a HALO for quite some time. I'd used the online configuration tool for fun and perused stock guitars on Reverb and Ebay. This guitar is amazing. The fit and finish is impeccable. I actually spend time just looking at it. The setup was spot on, the action is perfect. Have I mentioned how much I like the Juggernauts in it? The are amazingly adroit at everything I've thrown at them. They are some of the most articulate pickups I've ever heard on a guitar that is already a dream to play. I have a custom Carvin/Kiesel that I've been using as my main axe for a few years now, and the Halo meets or exceeds it in every way. This guitar is fantastic... the staff should be very proud of the work in making such a fine instrument. Short answer: I like it.

Do you offer a one-piece body option?
HALO ADMIN RESPONSE: Yes, we can do that. Just mention it in the special instructions when placing an order and we'll be glad to build it that way for you. There will be an extra charge that will be billed manually. However, in some cases, it may not be possible. For example, a double-neck Explorer-style body shape built as a 1-piece Flamed Koa body would present challenges because of the wood's availability.

Just received the guitar this morning and I have to say you guys make insanely good guitars, the guitar has turned out exactly how I imagined and it plays and sounds great. I was also shocked to find somehow it was still almost exactly in tune and still set up the case when I first opened it which I never seen before and iv done a lot of online guitar orders.

Just have to say the guitar has completely made my day and I can honestly say it surpasses pretty much anything I have played before in terms of playability and the finish is top notch. Kinda puts a lot of my other guitars to shame XD

Thanks a billion

Mark

Add the option to have a deeper cutaway so you can assess the 24 and 27 frets. Nice website btw

Amazing guitars! 3 stars as it is quite over priced and you don't get a good view of the guitar from just that one image

First off, I'll start with the negatives: There is a small finish crack underneath the strap button behind the bridge, like someone dinged it, but I'm not picky and I got a good deal, so it's okay.
Second: When shipping large packages, packing peanuts suck. I spent 20 minutes cleaning up before I could even look at the guitar.

For the positives: Basically everything else. The guitar is fantastic, and having owned an older Halo seraphim, I can say the quality is so much better. It sounds and plays amazing, easily on par with $3-5k instruments I also own.

And also, no other custom shop has ever asked me how I liked the guitar. You guys have always had great service and this is no exception. Kudos to you guys on stepping up your game and building a badass instrument!

The premise is amazing, but the website is lacking. you cannot see the side view of the guitar you create, and can't zoom in either. The site also overcharges for certain colour, which is ridiculous as the price is already quite high. I would also suggest adding a vine inlay option, like on a Steve Vai guitar.

This website is great! There are a lot of options for the guitar and they're not hella expensive! I love it! I'm currently in the long hard process of saving for one of the guitars. However, I think it would be Awesome if you added a harpoon shape for the headstock designed after Randy Rhoads's polka dot Vee headstock and also add the custom inlay. If you added this stuff to the options, it would be great.

Love the option to have custom fretboard radii, custom nut width, and a zero fret.
I spend waaayyy too much time building dream guitars on here.

Would love to see some Railhammer pickups in the pickup options!
