Sounds like a description of the hard-to-find original "chrome" L-705 (which also came in black). They are sought-after, but I've never read anything about the reissue not sounding as good.

I put a reissue 705 in my GFI and I like it a lot. But I had to drill a new hole for the cable because the pickup cavity was so shallow there was no room to route the cable sideways under the pickup to the original hole.
