Such a great-sounding Mag pickup, definitely worth checking out🎸
Great demo, thanks. Have you tried this one or the nc-passive with a 12-string? Thinking about something like this for a vintage 12-string dreadnought.
@@patrickfinnegan5230 I have not tried it but it should work great on a 12 string, cheers
You’re an amazing musician and I love your reviews. Thanks a lot for your reviews. Does NC passive has an aux output? And sure nc 2 is more acoustic sounding I guess because of the mic. What about nc passive compared to nc2 ? Does Nc passive also sounds acoustic or more magnetic compared to nc2 ? Thanks a lot
Awesome video!! I have an NC-2 in my guitar and it's terrific. Thanks for posting!!
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
10:29 bit of stairway there! It's every guitarist's Freudian slip 😂 Great video, though.
Haha! I knew someone would notice that :), Thanks!
I really enjoyed hearing your playing (never mind the tone demo)! I'd love to see more plain performance videos from you, Waylon. -Tom
Excellent review man, seriously looking at he NC1 and this helped heaps👍
Glad I could help!
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.
Thanks! Super impressed with this pickup, When testing through my rig I found it had really low noise, very cool :)
I've run it in a Martin OM-21 and in two different Collings. No noise issues at all. It is giggable out of the box, more than I can say for any K&K install I've had. The only downside is if you strum over that part of the sound hole, you can get clicking depending on your technique. I found it to be an issue on a short-scale guitar, but not an issue on 25.4/5" scale. Totally depends on your strumming technique. Fwiw I only fold in about 10-20% mic for a bit of sheen.
Cool, thanks for the info!@@ToddRichmond
I gave up on an NC-2 due to the high noise floor / hiss that I couldn’t overcome… it was awful. I tried running direct into several amps / preamps / interfaces and the hiss never went away. After watching this, going to order a fresh one and give it another shot… maybe I had a bad one.
First-rate review. Well done. Thanks.
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.
NICE review! Reduced my buyer's remorse!
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..
Niccceee!
Hey Waylon! Is this the pickup you gig with? If not, which one? Thank you
greta demo - what processing are you using on this please? Reverb/Delay?
Wow, that sounds great. How good is the battery life?
Oh, my bad you addressed that at the end. If my gig last longer than the battery I need a different booking agent😂
Nevermind you addressed that.
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."
Waylon, would you please tell me if it is possible to use an e-bow with this magnietic pickup ?
many thanks in advance if you have the answer to that question !
I'm pretty sure you can, not something I have tried though but it would be pretty cool!
@@WaylonMcPhersonGuitarthank you very much for your reply. I did some parallel research and it's confirmed.
I thought an E-bow would only work with some pickups. But it actually already works without any pickup.
