Lee Malia's 3 Favorite Things About His Jackson LM-87

The Jackson Pro Series Signature Lee Malia LM-87 electric guitar is a masterful blend of vintage aesthetics and modern performance, designed in collaboration with Bring Me the Horizon guitarist. With its offset Starcaster body shape and open-pore black finish, the LM-87 exudes understated elegance while delivering exceptional tonal clarity and playability. Its okoume body and 3-piece set-neck construction offer a resonant foundation, reinforced with graphite for stability during heavy riffing and low tunings. Equipped with Jackson LM-87 signature pickups and a TOM-style adjustable bridge, this guitar provides the tonal power and precision required for Malia's intricate and aggressive playing style.
Custom Jackson Pickups for Versatile Metal Tones
This guitar features Jackson LM-87 signature pickups, including a humbucker at the bridge and a P90 at the neck, for a wide range of tonal possibilities. The bridge humbucker delivers tight lows and aggressive mids ideal for heavy riffing, while the neck P90 offers a smooth, warm response for cleaner passages and melodic leads. A push-pull coil split on the volume knob unlocks single-coil tones, adding further versatility to your sound. With a 3-way toggle switch for seamless pickup selection, this model delivers precise tonal shaping for high-impact performances.
TOM-Style Bridge for Stability and Sustain
The LM-87 is outfitted with a Jackson TOM-style adjustable bridge paired with an anchored tailpiece and fine-tuners, ensuring superior tuning stability and sustain. This setup offers reliable intonation, even under heavy picking and low tunings, making it ideal for the demands of modern metal playing. The fine-tuners allow for quick adjustments, while the anchored design maintains structural integrity over time. Combined with the 25.5" scale length, this bridge enhances the guitar's ability to deliver tight, punchy lows and clear, ringing highs.
Fast Neck and Compound Radius Fingerboard for Precision
The thin D-shaped neck profile on this model is crafted from three pieces of okoume, reinforced with graphite for long-term stability. Its oiled finish provides a smooth surface for effortless transitions between chords and solos. The bound amaranth fingerboard features Jackson's signature shark-eye block inlays and a compound-radius design—curved near the nut for comfortable chording and flatter toward the upper frets for high-speed soloing. With 22 jumbo frets, this fingerboard offers durability and precision, ensuring accurate note articulation for technical players.
Elegant Design With Road-Ready Durability
The LM-87 combines vintage-inspired details with rugged construction, making it a standout both visually and functionally. Its open-pore black finish highlights the natural grain of the okoume body and neck, while the 3-ply black/white/black pickguard adds striking contrast. Chrome hardware, including die-cast locking tuners, enhances tuning stability and complements the refined aesthetic. The dual-action truss rod with a wheel adjustment ensures easy neck relief tweaks, even during demanding tour schedules. With its durable build and sophisticated design, this guitar is ready for stage and studio use.

Fantastic instrument and value

Hard to believe I'm the first to review this guitar. It's light with a fast neck. To my inexpert ears, the pickups sound great, and the coiling splitting on the HB is a nice touch. Setup OOTB was fantastic. It stays in tune, and every guitar should have the fine-tuning capability.
