Can Anybody Tell Me What Pickups and Mod This Is?

I bought a used strat off of ebay, and the owner didn't have any info on what pickups or mod this is. I can't find anything like it on Fender either.

Fairly stock wiring setup.......Its just got 2 separate tone caps, which might help avoid some of the (supposed) crossover tone issue with the one position where 2 pickups selected are connected to 2 separate tone circuits.
It also has a treble bleed.

​​​​​​​Not sure on the pickups

I wonder what the mini toggle is for, what it does, on the front. At first I thought it might be a Gilmore Mod, but I can't be sure from the photos. I haven't actually received it yet so I can't test it until it gets here.
 
That treble bleed cap is way too big. The same size as the tone caps. You probably want something like 1000pF (I usually go a little smaller) for a treble bleed.
 
the tone caps are .047, looks like the treble bleed is .001? hard to see the marking clearly, but that would be a fine value
