Anyone know anything about this company? Back in the 80's, I know a few big players used them (at least the Night Ranger guitarists Jeff Watson and Brad Gillis), yet there is virtually no information about them online. Their pickups even seem to have escaped the hands of Harmony Central reviewers?

So, anyone know anything about the company? Do they still exist? I did a search on Google, and found virtually nothing.

i remember playing a few of them in germany back in the mid 90's. they were nice guitars but i dont know much else about them

Brad Gillis told me that they kicked quot;major bootyquot;... Go figure.

Just a little bump, so a few more people that may know something gets a chance to see this.

I remember the ads but nothing else. Were they active or passive? IIRC I remember the pickup being held in hand by Jeff Watson and it looked quite a bit deeper than a covered Jackson pickup, which this reminded me of.

Great question! If I could find one, I'd totally retool a strat in homage to Brad Gillis. I was out looking for those a few months ago and found jack (that's nothing, not a reference to blades, the bass player). I don't think they were active, but illis had a boost hooked up which was battery operated.

Hi guys!

I think I can answer a number of questions for you. PJ did make some great pickups and I used to be an endorser. In addition to his own branded pickups he did OEM for Schon Guitars, which is how I met him. Great guy, and yes, the pickups were very hot. I never saw any that were active and I did see the quot;deepquot; pickups that were mentioned in this thread. They were covered humbuckers, and the one on my Schon is covered, but definitely not active. PJ was working with pickup master Bill Lawrence who along with Seymour and Larry is one of the founders of the pickup replacement market. Bill invented the quot;barquot; humbucker as I recall and all my PJs are so equipped. Hope that helps!

Best,

Do you still have any of the PJ pickups or guitars with them?
Pics would be cool, i've never seen any PJ Marx pickups.

If anyone has a PJ Jeff Watson model, I'll take it!
I met him when he was 15, great kid, montrously good player, too!

I'll overbid you with 5$
