Personality Highlight: Brother Halim


Greetings, folks. For the month of October, I will be showcasing some individuals very much affiliated to the guitar at large but making marks in the music scene as well. They come from all walks of life with a strong passion for music & everything related. The objective here is to accord highlight to deserving individuals who are beyond the popular media attention. More importantly, I value their friendship / acquaintance. We begin the instalment with Brother Halim.


Brother Halim (also known as Halim VH among friends) is a Singaporean guitarist who is now residing in Johor Bahru. He is currently one of the founding members of Etcetera. He is also on guitar duties with The Guzzbuzz Project where he got to wield his scalloped 'board Epiphone (Kasih MV) & a Fender Strat (Palsu MV). 


His main squeeze & personal favourite is definitely the Ibanez 540R which I had the privilege of re-stringing once (CLICK to read). Wishing Brother Halim all the best in all his musical endeavours. He is definitely one of the respected senior members (or otai as they say) in the local & neighbouring guitar circle. In the mean time, do check out the following MVs for the songs Kasih & Palsu.

Yay love Abang Halim. We got to know each other when my band played in Singapore and he came to the backstage for some guitar talk. Even went to his house once to check his gear out. Such a nice gentleman.
