So I grabbed a cheap White Les Paul Custom....I'm gonna Steve Jones it......stickers and all.
His GIbson Signature model has Pickup Bridge: 498T and Pickup Neck: 496R. I need some advice on pickups which are clones or very similar, but not as pricey I can use instead. I appreciate any suggestions.
Thanks!

At some point Gibson posted the exact turn counts and specs for most of their pickups which I have written down.
Of course hand wound will be different than machine wound though
