Help identifying pickups and tone circuit...

[Edenburgh]

Now tinkering a bit with my '07 Fender Highway One Precision.

Can anyone identify these pickups?   Are they stock?  

Also...am I right in thinking this is the Greasbucket circuit with the extra cap on the tone pot?

Anything stamped or moulded in the cover... Artec?

Alnicos from lack of bar magnet at the bottom.

Nothing stamped or moulded on the covers.   But done a little more digging.  There's a number 048614 stamped on the bottom of the pickup.   This, it turns out, is the Fender part number for the bobbin which (according to a thread on Talkbass) changed to plastic in 1999. Therefore appears to be stock pickups.

Just to confirm the Greasbucket thing now.

Certainly looks that way... 2x caps and a resister in the sleeve...

You selling that?   Looks quite a good project for someone.

Link error...

No not me... spotted on Gumtree in Southampton. I've made a 'ATTN: Southampton' post. Too far for me unfortunately.

Fab - what I thought, thanks for confirming.
