I can't compare these to other brands, but I really like them. Easy install and easy to use. Definitely worth the upgrade just for the security they provide.

Looks and feels great. Soft leather and seems very well-made. A little tough getting it on the pegs at first, but that's to be expected with new leather.

This guitar is absolutely extraordinary. Starting with the design; The finish is the most gorgeous I've ever seen, it's so bright and red and yet it's also so dark and crimson. The colour almost changes in the light. The pickups glow in the dark which is wild. The knows are out of the way of your hand so you're not striking them while playing. The bridge is well constructed and stays in tune very well.
The pickups are placed in a good position, both sound great and its the only guitar I have where I like using both pickups as opposed to the bridge position only.
Huge sustain, massive low end. One of the easiest guitars I've played despite the learning curve of an 8 string. Fast neck despite gloss finish.

This guitar is a beast, you will not regret this purchase.
I paired it with the Does it Doom? Baghdad pedal and an Orange Super Crush 100. The sound is fat and filthy.

I'm not really a bass player, but I wanted something easy to play at a good price for the quality. Given my experience with Gretsch in the past, I decided to take advantage of the good deal offered here. I am definitely not disappointed and would recommend this budget bass to anyone looking to try it out.

This is single handedly the greatest instrument I've ever owned. It's beautiful. Sounds beautiful, and can handle grit.
Best purchase I've ever made.
I love it. It's as advertised, to a T. People say the ebanol fret board marks up easy, I disagree, it looks good to me.
The seller was amazing too.

I've been eyeing this body style for a while and decided to pull the trigger on this brand. Easily holds its own against the big names, if not excelling. Beautiful craftmanship and the setup was A+ perfect. I would choose this over a Gibson LP or SG any day. Feels awesome, plays awesome.

Great guitar. Safe haven music is the best music store on Long Island!

Exceptional guitar!

Love these strings. They truly are the best. Safe Haven gets your order right out and you have in a few days never any hassles or issues!!!

This pedal is defiantly one of the best fuzz pedals out there, perfect amount of fuzz and distortion. Defiantly worth the $$

As a practice combo, this is a very good choice. There are 29 tones to choose from, and the sound quality is also considered good in this price range.

Great guitar shop with very curious and knowledgeable staff. Thank you for your help and patience with my purchase. Would highly recommend Safe Haven Music to anyone wanting a great guitar.

Fantastic guitar at a fantastic price. Feels great and sounds even better. Safe Haven Music was wonderful to deal with. Bought this guitar as a demo and it looked perfect. Will buy from them again.

Hands down the best in NY! They will go over and beyond to make sure you’re happy. If they don’t have what you’re looking for, they will find it for you. Brendan and his team treat you like family. The best in the business.

When I saw the highly anticipated release drop and Safe Haven posted on Insta reached out and ordered one. Arrived perfect as usual from Safe Haven. Love the sound and versatility. The pick up is off the charts!!! Safe Haven should be your go to for guitar needs!!!

The styrofoam inside the guitar case was detached.

This Dunable Asteroid DE plays like a dream! Quality built, perfect balance, no sharp frets, and the pickups are great for heavy distorted riffs (I got an incredible thrash tone just with a ts9 and a Marshall dsl20). I can’t be happier with this beautiful guitar.

Officially recommended by Taylor (for their grand auditorium guitars). Best price on the market here on SafeHaven, appreciate it!

Saw the guitar online, chat was available asked a few questions received an immediate response placed my order. The guitar arrived in perfect condition. The way safe haven packs the guitars is the best in the biz. Guitar was set up nicely and after a few minor tweaks was enjoying this beauty. Buying from them is a no brainer. The service truly the best.

I dig Vongon devices and, let's be clear, it's not as cool as Polyphrase (their latest pedal). It doesn't have midi, the ability to update firmware (you know, just in case)… Also, its reverb isn't the most tweakable thing in the world: basically, it's just one algo with one band tone control and decay time. But the vibrato! I found it to be much better than recent «Generation Loss» which doesn't have much sweet spots in its settings, imo. You can't make a chewy random vibrato out of two mono pedals with random wave genarators in each of them – it has to be a stereo thing, one box, to avoid a chorus effect, and Ultrasheers nails it.

well, it's not your regular grandpa delay. no, sir. it's a decent looper and a drone machine in one device. basically, you just need to throw some signal in, make it freeze with a left footswitch and here you go, you got worn out chewy drone that backs your play. also, let's not forget about its polyrhythmic capabilities and midi-sync (the latter became a must for me for every new thing I buy).

I'm 74 now and I have been setting up guitars for a little over 50 years. At my age I am have owned them all, played them all and set them all up. I bought this in the flat red and it was the last one in that color they had. It came with 10-46 strings on it. My particular guitar didn't need anything and played great right out of the box. The set up was good and the intonation was good. However, I am particular and I use a lighter gauge string 9.5 - 44 Ernie Ball. This is the third Ibanez AS53 I have bought. I had to sell my others because I moved. I have never cared for the pickups that come with this guitar and I always switch them out. Here is what I did: I removed the strings, polished the frets with 0000 steel wool, used boiled linseed oil on the fret board, rolled the edges Pof the fret board binding and replaced the pickups with a set of Guitar Madness classic 57's alnico ii. They only cost $39.00 delivered to my door off of Bay. The sound great and I can recommend them for this guitar as an inexpensive but very effective upgrade. I adjusted the trust rod slightly, lowered the action and set the intonation. Now it is no longer a guitar but it is a musical instrument. I think these are some of the best semi hollow body guitars you can get for the money and even if you spend more in some cases. I am not saying it is equal to anything else but better than most and very playable. I love the size which is slightly smaller 15 1/2 inch lower bout. The guitar is balanced well with no nose dive and the neck is smooth and fast. I highly recommend this guitar for all skill levels especially if you don't want to take your $3,500 Libby to a gig. I just can't justify spending that kind of money on a guitar any more. To each their own on that one. Thank you Dylan for your help. You very great to deal with. This was my first experience with Safe Haven Music and I like the way they do business. Hope this helps and good luck on your search.

If you want the best customer service before and after the sale, call Dylan! These guys went over and beyond to make sure I was satisfied and happy with my purchase! I can tell you that this Player Telecaster Limited Edition oxblood red /ebony fretboard plays as well if not better than any American made Tele that I have had.. Oh, did I mention that it’s absolutely stunning too? Being from Louisiana, I was leary about ordering from a place so far away that I’d never heard of. Rest assured, they will take care of you. I even had a great conversation with the owner, nice guy. If you want honest, dependable, and just awesome customer service , don’t hesitate to call them. For one on one service, you can’t go wrong. I am very impressed with Safe Haven Music!

great pedal, it can go from little fuzz to full on distortion with out the loss of low end, the boost only setting is great for guitar, thanks to Safe Haven Music for the killer hook up

I love these Jackson King V Hardshell cases. They are made of high quality durable thick plastic. They are life weight but rugged. The latches are the best on the market. They snap into place and lock if necessary. These bad boys can take a beating and keep your guitar safe and secure. Jackson made sure to use all the space in the case equitably. There are pockets for strings, picks, and straps and a few other tools if you need them. Nothing is wasted in the design. If you have a King V, I highly recommend getting this case. It’s worth it.
