WTF, It's About Time! 1+ Year Review Enya Nova Go

Here I review the Enya Nova Go travel guitar after over a year of use.

They've actually gone down in price since the original review as well!

I'm very happy with this guitar overall and it has held up very well over the last year. I play it all the time and it's my go-to for traveling.

Thanks for the follow-up review. I just picked up the electric version (SP1) and it's pretty nice. I did change out the saddle for a compensated bridge saddle and it helped with the intonation on the higher frets. I've also polished the frets to smooth out bending. Other than that, it's a great guitar.

Like someone else said, it now ships with a padded gig bag. The bag is stiff, which is similar to the ones provided with the new Martins and Taylors, but the padding isn't as thick. I do like the larger front pocket to store accessories. It can also hold smaller songbooks but you may not be able to zip it closed.

I just got mine and I knew a cab sim impulse response (IR) will give it more acoustic dimensions and it actually worked pretty well. I used flamma cabsim pedal with Taylor IR I bought 3 years ago. For recording i bypass all the onboard effects except the compressor then reverb plugis on DAW, chorus and other modulation effects on DAW as well if needed . Reason being is that the IR should be the pre effects in the signal chain.

Did you ever replace the stock d’addario strings, just got mine and the bottom end lacks I figure a new set of strings should bring a bit back as I’m not a huge lite gauge fan

Does it withstand better than woods if getting bumped?

How to replace the battery of Enya Nova Go Sp1?

[davidedmunds]

I had the acoustics very. Sent it back. Wouldn’t stay in tune. Got the electric version l. Night and day. Sounds better and stays in tune.

damn probably my taste isn't very good but i always loved to hear it connected via amplifier or recording. dunno it's my first acoustic electric. but i whenever i hear it, i can remember those who plays in public. and actually it's being used by one of the street musicians in my area. it bass isn't very hugh but those highs and mids sounds crisp for me

[jacobidoko]

Which would you recommend, Enya Nova Go SP1 or Blue Lava Original?

[john-brady]

It no longer ships with that case it now ships with a half way decent bag - but it’s not a case and not anywhere near as nice…

[djcuriosity]

This guitar’s perfect for Chuck Berry’s descendants, but if you're into smooth jazz or R&B, keep moving.

Your whole video is of you talking and if I was going to play on YouTube I would definitely perform something I was good at playing and not a Hawaiian song designed for another instrument

I'm actually interested in it.
With my disability; "big" (normal) guitars are more complicated for me to handle (i'm short & all) and I have a steinberger but it's kinda heavy. It is ok because I can handle it, but if I can have something actually lighter than that too that would be something great.
I'm actually considering it
