The UKs Bring Me the Horizon is one of the fastest rising pop/rock groups in the world and Lee Malia has emerged as one of the leading guitarists of his generation. Like Lee’s signature Epiphone Les Paul Artisan and Explorer, the new Ltd. Ed. Lee Malia RD Custom Artisan Outfit features another classic design in Lee’s favorite Walnut finish with Ivory and Black binding, “Artisan” floral inlay in pearloid, and Lee’s signature pickup combination of a sensitive Gibson USA P-94 single coil pickup for rhythm and a powerful Gibson 84T-LM™ humbucker with coil-splitting for blazing leads.

"It’s amazing,” said Lee Malia of his new RD Custom Artisan, “I feel like live it's definitely going to be a guitar for the heavier stuff. At the moment it sounds good with everything so I've been playing it all the time.”
