Mojotone Quiet Coil NC-2

Coming from other pickups as LR Baggs M80, Seymour Duncan Mag Mic, Schertler AG-6 with the mini mic and Fishman rare earth blend I must say that this Mojotone NC-2 takes the top spot easily.
I’ve have owned almost all, including sunrise during my 30+ year as a guitarist.

Incredibly organic sounding and balanced. Even the B- E strings are completely tamed on the NC-2.
Another plus is the weight. It’s really light-weighted and doesn’t impact the soundboard.
The mic is built in somehow, you can’t see it which is pretty cool.
The mic is way more feedback proof than any of the ones I mentioned above.

Of course there is some hints of the mag but it’s warm an full. It’s something I prefer in alternative tunings.

This pickup is up there with the AP5 Pro on my Maton 808 TE which is a bold statement. I will also remove a couple of LR Baggs anthems on some of my Martins.

It’s worth the money.

I have this pickup installed in all my acoustics now. It’s easy to install, battery lasts forever (for a looong time), the pickup sounds great, it is feedback resistant, even in band situations. I scroll the blend wheel back a bit when it gets loud and sometimes I put in half a feedbuster in the sound hole. Then I can use overdrive pedals and it works fine and sounds good. I’ve tried a lot of acoustic pickups over the years and this is my favourite. Great for percussive playing when the wheel is turned all the way to microphone position. I make percussive loops that way. Then I scroll it back a bit when playing over the loop. Half way, a little bit to the pickup side, it’s a matter of taste and type of playing. Thank you for a great pickup!

After trying different types of pickups I landed here. I wanted something feedback resistant, easy to dial in, wouldn't affect acoustic tone and good sounding. All those things are provided by the Mojotone NC2 and people have complimented the live sound this pickup provides.
There is a hint of mag here of course, but the sound is less coloured than other brands I've heard. The mic adds a sweet note of air and rounds the sound out.
We all know the reality of gigging - there isn't always half an hour to tame the bottom end, eq the mids, bring out some sparkle. This pickup provides an immediately decent sound with strong feedback resistance.

Strong recommend.
