Anyone know what he used to get that amazing distortion and sound on Count Your Blessings? I've yet to hear anything like it.

you remember when bmth played a show in myspace in australia,in the right side i've seen orange ad30,by knob position,and i can not find an orange with knob position like ad30 htc,so that means that he uses ad30 htc


Could have been an Orange AD140, which is now discontinued but same as the AD30, just 140watts and different tubes.

Odds are he could've rented that one. I doubt he'd haul his entire rig to Australia.

Quoting Mike:
That's only one of his Angelus's. If I'm correct, all other ones have an EMG85 in the bridge, and an EMG single coil in the neck.

Additional info on Lee Malia:
The Gibson Les Paul he's using is a Standard Traditional Plus (Heritage Cherry Sunburst).
He no longer uses D'Addario strings. He uses Ernie Ball Not Even Slinky strings, and replaces the 6th string with an 80 gauge string. Jona has the same strings, but uses 70 instead of 80.

(btw, this is the same Mike that has been posting for some time)

how do you know this is the strings they use where did u get this info from?


I read it in an interview in a Japanese magazine with Jona and Lee. I'd have to check at home which magazine it was though, but they mention the strings they use, and tunings I believe (C standard, Drop A#, Drop G).

I also asked Jona on twitter and he confirmed that he uses 70 for the low E, and Lee uses 80.

also he has gibson menace guitar , he used it i think in new album,i've seen it in photos,and,i have seen also that he used 2 schecter not sure what models but i have photos

I'm surprised! I did see pics of him recording with his custom Sheena though. He most probably used an old Schecter Blackjack, back in 07 I believe? I could be wrong though, it may be an ESP (LTD) as well, as the MH-1000 is fairly similar to a Schecter C-1.


After further research, he used a Schecter C-1 Elite in the later days of CYB.

I recently had a chance to speak with Lee after a show, and asked him about the LP. According to him, Gibson sent him one for a trial (also, he said that he likes Gibsons a lot).

I saw Bring Me The Horizon on Saturday and Sunday, and saw that his guitar - the one tuned to Drop G (which is the amber/brown burst guitar) - is another First Act custom guitar. On the truss rod cover it said something close to "L.D. Malia". I am not too sure about the letters on the Truss Rod cover, but I could tell that "Malia" was on there.

Also, his black First Act custom shop guitar has an F-key hole on the top.

Cheers.
