Humbucker identification not on identification lists

I just searched the page links to pups made before 2002 and after 2002. I could not find the sticker on the bottom of either list. I am pretty sure it's a Pearly Gates humbucker, but want to be sure.

The sticker on the bottom is PGP (I so see some references in my google search to Pearly Gates Plus, so I am assuming that's the one).

I had just ordered some humbucker mounting screws that were too large and need to know exactly what freaking size screw this specific pickup takes if it's not a standard size.

Thanks y'all
Jon

That's a Pearly Gates Plus; essentially an over-wound Pearly Gates bridge with an A5 magnet instead of A2. They were OEM'd for the Fender Lonestar and Big Apple Strats starting in the late 90s.

Thanks y'all. It's a '97 American made Lone Star Strat, so that lines up perfectly.
