Yep, this is a neck humbucker for a Telecaster ... built as a custom order for a rather special customer. This is kinda like a narrow Wide Range in sound as It's essentially two telecaster neck pickups (one reverse wound) on custom bottom flatwork and seated on a standard humbucker baseplate. It's interesting as with one coil shut down you get a perfectly normal tele neck tone ... and a fat and quite aggressive sound in humbucking mode.
This is probably not one that I'd put into production, not least because it is a total pain in the arse to make ... but it's a fun concept nonetheless.

Though it may well explain why I was shown a rather poorly made Fender Custom Shop version and asked to come up with something better.
