Yep, that matches what is said in the news article that IDsnowDog shared to the group a couple years back: https://forum.seymourduncan.com/showthread.php?314522-PJ-Marx-From-pickups-to-bullets

The following isn't the Brad Gillis model, but it is an example of PJ Marx's formerly large impact in the rock-metal world, coincidentally featured in some wall art in my home studio. This photo is from around the time of the "Them" album - very thrashy tones on that album.

Another interesting thing in this photo is - judging by the unusual closeness of the two humbuckers in that guitar - that that B.C. Rich superstrat seems to have a 24.75" scale neck.

YES! Andy LaRocque and Pete Blakk both used PJ Marx pickups on "Them" and "Conspiracy" in their BC riches. Great lead tones for sure! Overall guitar tone on "Conspiracy" was great.

Sold my Brad Gillis pickup on this forum in Oct 2013. The buyer still has zero posts (he signed up just to pm me about the pickup). It came in a Fender HM Strat with the wiring all F'd up so I never heard how it "would have" sounded. I asked him to report back how he liked it but I never heard back from him.

Gillis uses JB's these days.

I was recently surfing for Fernandes Gillis guitars on reverb...
