This is a Gibson Les Paul (Slimline Double Cutaway). Matt's DC Lite features stock gold hardware and pickups, and a Roland GK-2a system installed. The body and the neck are made out of mahogany and include plain maple top (for the body), while the fretboard is made out of rosewood. Like almost all Matt's guitars used between 1999 and 2001, it features tape around the edge of the body. Apparently, the object taped below the bridge is "a piece of bass fretboard".<ref>{{cite|title="old guitar of Matt" thread|desc=Decribes the object below the bridge.|date=2007-11-19|author=james90  @ muselive.com|url=http://www.muselive.com/forums.php?m=posts&p=923260#923260|domain=muselive.com}}</ref>


The DC Lite also has gold hardware.
It also appears that Matt had a Les Paul DC Pro, with the exact same specs as the Gibson Les Paul DC Lite (apart from this guitar had chrome hardware and no [[Roland GK-2a Guitar Synthesizer Driver|Roland GK2 MIDI]] pickup.) This guitar also had black tape around the edge of it. A video of the guitar can be found [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ghLbiRfH3Cw here].
