I don't know if he's one of the top ones because I haven't tried any of his guitars. Moreover, he seems to target Asian market more than anywhere else.
I have not personally tried Lee Guitars, but I think these guitars were a collaboration with a Singaporean luthier Malcolm Tan (mtlutherie.com).

Found this information from his website -
"Renowned Taiwanese music producer Jonathan Lee had hired me as a consultant, designer, luthier cum manager to start up a small custom guitar making facility in China. Jonathan has been on the lookout for a luthier whom he can work with to come up with original designs bearing his namesake. In late 2001, we were introduced by a mutual acquaintance in Singapore. Lee Guitars humble beginnings began about a year after their initial meet up."
