Classic "TopHat" knobs with metal inserts control neck and bridge Volume and Tone. In between the two pickups under the pickguard is a "Dummy Coil" that cancels the "hum" when in single-coil mode. Gibson USA Pickups with Coil-Splitting: To get his distinctive tone, Lee Malia prefers the combination of a sensitive P-94 single coil pickup for rhythm and a powerful Gibson 84T-LM™ humbucker for solos. The black traditional "clipped ear" headstock also has floral inlay with a pearloid "Epiphone" logo in 60s era typeface with a "Lee Malia" signature screened on the back. The Mahogany neck has an easy-to-play "1959" Rounded "C" profile with a 24.75" scale length. The Mahogany body has a Maple top to add bite to the tone. Lee Malia RD Custom Artisan Outfit features Malia's favorite Walnut finish with Ivory and Black binding on the body and headstock along with an "Artisan" floral inlay in pearloid on a smooth Torrefied Composite fingerboard. Like Lee's classic Les Paul Custom Artisan, the Ltd. It's a fitting design for Lee Malia, who has emerged as one of the leading guitarists of his generation for his work in the pioneering pop and metal band Bring Me the Horizon.
