I've got a bridge pickup that Bryan at BG custom wound me. It's a bit over 7K and it has AlNiCo V poles with the D and G poles raised up, like a '60s bridge pickup, which is basically what Pagey would've been using back then.

I'm getting good results from my Duncan vintage '54 set.

A vintage style, alnico V tele p.u. should work well (the Antiquity II would be a good choice).
Personally, I'd go with a hotter lead pickup though.

My Jerry Donahue gets pretty close to Communication Breakdown. (I don't even know if he plays that with a Tele).

Yeah he does. All of Led Zeppelin I was on a Tele and the Stairway to Heaven solo was on a tele.

I've also heard that Achilles Last Stand was but I'm not so sure about that one.

Actually all of the electric Stairway to Heaven parts were on some sort of Fender. Chorus and Bridge was on a Fender XII and the Solo on a Tele. Also, thanks for the help guys.
