ABOUT US

In 1999, friends Waylon Ford and Belinda Lee realized how drastically guitar manufacturers had inflated prices. From that epiphany a new company was formed to deliver guitars crafted well and priced correctly. This revolutionary shop would not succumb to the Green-Eyed Monster.

The new millennium ushered in HALO Guitars – a company that provides instruments BUILT BY MUSICIANS and PRICED FOR MUSICIANS ®.

8 years later HALO Guitars prides itself on its craftsmanship, unyielding tone, high-performance parts, ergonomics, and amazing visual style. HALO has continued to evolve year after year with the Demon Series, Hand-Carved Series, and Select Edition; every model is available in a 6, 7, 8, 9 or 10 string extended-range version.

HALO staff are themselves musicians who encourage experimentation and are willing to tackle design challenges others have turned down.

    I make do with what I have and do more and more with less and less. Three sheets is all I need to launch and build a wildly successful business.
