Mosrite humbuckers all had pole pieces. I am not saying they never made humbuckers without them, but I have never seen them. I have many Mosrites that are said to be Humbuckers with no pole pieces, but in every case, they are single coil. If they exist, I would think they were on the Celebrity guitars from the early 70's as that was realistically the only time Semie made humbuckers for production guitars. The "New" Mosrite guitars from 1976 to 1978 were thought by some to be humbuckers with no pole pieces, but I can assure you, they are single coils. If anyone can post pictures of Humbucking Mosrite pickups with no pole pieces, I would love to see them with the guitars they are in so we can document this on the forum.
Thanks for your kind indulgence,

Actually you had a choice of either style, one with pole pieces and one without them. My '70 (71?) Celebrity I, has the Humbuckers without
the polepieces. Also, keep in mind, this was before Semie decided to incorporate the Humbuckers as an optional upgrade for customers
who preferred the Humbuckers over the Single Coil Setup
