Nice Acoustic Sound

"I'm really happy with this pickup. I have been bluzin out on my acoustic ever since I got it. It has a lot of base and I have to use a low cut EQ but once that is applied it sounds like my Martin only louder. It is also a very clean install for an active PU with everything built right into the PU body"

Incredible pickup Mojotone!

"Insanely good!!! Not many pieces of gear make me grin like this one did. It was an immediate surprise when I strummed the first chord and heard the acoustic sound I've been trying to get from a pickup for years! Absolutely love it!"

Acoustic Purist? Consider the Quiet Coil NC-2.

"As a "boutique" builder of acoustic guitars I am expected to provide state-of-the-art solutions for the accurate amplified reproduction of a guitar's acoustic tone. For the acoustic purist, the quest for "My guitar, only louder!" is seemingly never-ending, and usually involves piezo crystals and preamps. In my experience, magnetic soundhole pickups, flexible and useful as they are, have not been able to replace the likes of a Barbera Transducer, James May Ultra Tonic, Trance Amulet M, etc. Even with heavy processing, "electric guitar" pickups are considered an accompaniment to, not a replacement for, high-end piezo solutions. Until now, that is. I recently purchased a Quiet Coil NC-2 and was so impressed with the results of my tests that I have begun recommending this pickup for consideration by my own discriminating acoustic guitar clients. Very nicely done, MojoTone!"

The Mojotone Quiet Coil NC-2 does everything it promises

"I was always afraid of using a soundhole pickup on my beautiful Lowden O50 Brazilian Rosewood/Sinker Redwood or my wonderful Martin D28 Custom Guatemalan Rosewood/Adirondack because I didn‘t want them to sound like a Les Paul. But as I was even more afraid of having any kinds of holes drilled into them I gave the Mojotone Quiet Coil NC-2 a chance. I am truly amazed by the beautiful, natural and authentic tone it delivers and it really IS quiet even when I sit near to my amplifier with the mic halfways dialled in. So if you decide to use a soundhole pickup with your acoustic guitar you should absolutely give it a try."

Like a Mic!

"Excellent natural sounding pickup with no feedback issues. I play in a loud church band with drums."
