I like the sound of the neck pickup in the 52 reissue. Which pickup is this and where can I buy?

I like it too on mine!

Original Vintage Tele® Pickups

Recently redesigned for an accurate vintage Tele tone. Made with the same materials and specifications of an early 1950's Telecaster pickup, the Original Vintage Telecaster speaks with extremely accurate vintage Tele twang. Made with Alnico 3 magnets, enamel coated magnet wire these pickups duplicate the warmth and edge that you'd come to expect from Fender®. The bridge pickup sports the traditional copper-plated steel base plate for that extra midrange punch while warmth and clarity is coaxed from the nickel-plated steel covered neck pickup. OEM on the American Vintage and many Custom Shop Telecasters. Available in black (bridge) and nickel (neck) only.

I don't have good advice on where to get one, though.
