  • I bought recently and I am very surprised because it sounds too sharp, even with the treble button close … (Taylor 414ce in a Bose S1 Pro)

  • Hey Waylon, watching this video made me order the Mojotone NC-2. I received it, installed it and played it over my AER compact 60 III. I will definitely not give it back 'cause I've found my 'Holy Grail'. Thanks for the video!

  • I had the passive and loved it, but the cable itself was microphonic and pretty noisy for temporary install. I’m handy but didn’t want to shorten the length of the cable and make it a permanent install. I should just trust my instinct and bought this one straight away. I sold the passive and have one of these to try now ❤

  • Hi Wayne. Great demo. I've just ordered one from Thomann Ireland as a result of your demo. Great guitar playing too. I have a number of acoustic guitars. Some with preamps but most with no electrics so I'm looking forward to getting my hands on this one. I have a few Mag Pickups but this is the best I've heard so far.
    Keep up the great work Wayne. Regards. Alan

  • I read a review on Thoman where somebody compared it to the 'Maton AP5 pro' as if it is as good, I thought that can't be true, how would you say they compare?

    Quoted from the review: "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."

  • I really enjoyed hearing your playing (never mind the tone demo)! I'd love to see more plain performance videos from you, Waylon. —Tom

  • What an excellent review! Thank you for putting it all together, for performing, and for all the nuance details. Also, amaaazing playing!

    I was a bit bummed to hear that you can’t separate the magnetic and the microphone, as it would be so nice to process them independently. I do like the sound of this better than the Rare Earth blend (as good as it is), though I may stick with the Fishman for independent control of the sources. I could use the NC-2 on a second guitar for more of a plug-n-play scenario, with less complexity. I’m very impressed by Mojotone and the NC-2.

    I’ll be checking out your original project! Blessings.

  • I replaced my Taylor 514 ES2 with this pickup…. Wow…. Sounds incredible.
    I left the ES pickups/controls/wires in place.
    I removed the ES system ( module where battery is) and replaced with a custom end pin plate to mount the jack.
    This way I am not damaging the guitar.
    This pick up is great. You almost can get away recording with it.
    Next I will outfit my 814..

  • Very cool Waylon! It sounds fabulous and this is the best demo. You actually plugged it into amplification and recorded that in the room! I’ve heard there is a lot of noise with these though.
