Close but maybe not the closest.

According to the official Gibson site the 57 Classic and Classic Plus are first in line for that.

Burstbuckers maybe second.

Have a look, see what you think.

The truth of the matter is that the original PAFs had a lot of variation/inconsistencies back then, so we have a range of pickups that suit the originals. The BB 1, 2, and 3 are thought to be the closest to the originals. The 57 Classics are similar, but evenly wound on both coils, so it has a smoother tone overall.
