Seymour Duncan Antiquity 55 Tele Bridge telecaster 11024-27
Does Fender make a reissue of a staggered pole pickup similar to this one?

OK, since no experts have chimed in, I'll give some starters.

CS Texas Specials are staggered, but I think they're way hotter.

Muddy Waters Signature Tele pickups are said to be like the TexSpec's but not as hot.

But then there is the AV(RI) '62 Tele pickup - AFAIK sold only with the bridge, but the price for the whole set is reasonable. By specs only, might be the closest to the SD.
And in my mind, of course, Fender made the pickups, SD made the "version"... :wink:

Well thanks for that. Was toying with the idea of a pickup swap as not much cut through playing in a band. The pots now have been swapped from 250k to some 1mb ones found in an old 50s amp. It's plenty raw and wide open now not as nice as a new pickup but does the job!

I just bought a set of Fender Vintage Reissue 52's, they are lower output and are about $130 CDN and won't break the bank. I've had a lot of Boutique and knock off pickups and the 52's put them all to shame.
