If someone knows what kind of guitar pickups is used by Keith on Neck position , please tell it .

i 've got some infos , but not sure of this :

MICAWBER
Micawber is the name of Keith's main Fender Telecaster. It is an early 50's
butterscotch color model with a black pickguard & a stock 3 way switch. The
sixth string is removed, it's always tuned to open G (G,D,G,B,D) low to
high with no capo. Gauges .011,.015,.018,.030,.042. It has replacement
tuners & a brass replacement bridge with individual saddles, and the nut is
cut to accomodate 5 strings-they aren't evenly spaced across the
fingerboard, but the first string is moved a bit to keep it from going over
the edge. It has a Gibson PAF humbucker in neck position, original Tele
pickup in the bridge position. It is warm & thick sounding & can be heard
on such live tracks as "Before They Make Me Run", "Brown Sugar", "Mixed
Emotions", and "Honky Tonk Women".
