The Enya Nova is surprisingly nice - a far more pleasant tone than I had expected before playing one. I have a transacoustic one. Not plugged in, the effects are subtle, but plugged into an amp, it’s my electric uke to rock out on (it has the looks) with the fun irony of playing rock songs on ukulele. Because sometimes I’m in the mood for that!

@PaulMansellukulele Год назад

yeah I agree - surprisingly nice !!!

@AnarchyInTheUkuleleTV Год назад

Plug it into that Big Muff Paul!

@@AnarchyInTheUkuleleTV always good advice! :)

@bonniedavidson936 Год назад

I have a pink concert one. I think for the money it is a nice ukulele. Stays in tune. Easy to play. I like to keep it in my car. A lot of us use them at ukulele jam.

@PaulMansellukulele Год назад

perfect for keeping in the car !

@MaybeLoveHate 7 месяцев назад

Crazy just how well it stays in tune. Compared to my other instruments it is night and day. I barely ever have to tune that thing haha

@spinnersue17 6 месяцев назад

@@MaybeLoveHate my Enya mahogany one is the same, has always stayed in tune really well.

@ukeanflute Год назад

I bought one of the early ones, played it lots and wore out the frets after 9 weeks. It's now out of the house, but I occasionally I play it when visiting relatives. I also love the tenor pro version, especially with a low G.

@PaulMansellukulele Год назад

Yeah I think it’ll really suit a low g

@AnarchyInTheUkuleleTV Год назад

Would definitely work with a low G but it would have to be a nylon and not a wound string because of the plastic frets.

@ukeanflute Год назад

@@AnarchyInTheUkuleleTV o yes, I'd never put a wound low G on the concert. The enya nova pro tenor has metal frets though, and I use seaguar fishing line as a low G. After all, the nut and the saddle are still plastic.

@billybollockhead5628 7 месяцев назад

I've had 3 pro's they all had REALLY dodgy electronics. I'd advise against, and stick with acoustic. Dont believe me? Unscrew the charging port and take a look yourself.

@ukeanflute 7 месяцев назад

@@billybollockhead5628 I'm sorry to hear so. I've only just bought a tiny and cheap practice amp. I hope the electronics will hold up once I start messing around with them.

@MariUSukulele Год назад

I have the tenor pro w / the semi-hemi metal frets and love it! Fantastic arrangement for Yesterday btw. 👍🏻

@PaulMansellukulele Год назад

cheers buddy. Yeah I think I will get one actually

@windysblog Год назад

I have the electric version. The pick ups are ok. I put low G, Fremont Black strings on mine. They are thin enough to fit in the plastic nut. Some strings don't fit because they are too thick and you can't do anything to widen that plastic nut. The Fremont Blacks also look nice against the black fretboard and have a more mellow tone. I use the chorus feature sometimes to get a slight echo, which helps the sound to resonate. It's my go-to uke for playing around a campfire or outdoors when I don't want to bring my more expensive ukuleles. 👍👍😊

@AnarchyInTheUkuleleTV Год назад

Sounds fantastic! We certainly need to play with pedals more often. We love the Nova U for that same reason - keep it in the car and don't worry about it!

@FourInchCats Год назад

Another fab review from the P Man! 😎

Well that is a glowing endorsement for Enya! They should use that on their marketing!!

@50mantravelling52 Год назад

Thanks for the review. I have a soprano version and really like it. I bought it a couple of months ago to keep in my camper to replace a Flight travel (my first ukulele) as the Flights frets have started to wear possibly because when I started playing as a novice I was trying to press the strings (Aquila) through the fretboard ? As yet I can detect no fret wear on the Enya and really enjoy playing it.

@PaulMansellukulele Год назад

Ha I always used to keep a ukulele in my 1984 be camper !

@AnarchyInTheUkuleleTV Год назад

The perfect use for the Enya!

@TheProjectsimpson 7 месяцев назад

I like most things about this uke, i am thinking about getting one. My only concern is the carbon fret bars vs traditional metal ones. How long should one expect these to last, being a composite material?

@AnarchyInTheUkuleleTV 7 месяцев назад

Due to the strings being nylon, they won't wear down carbon/plastic frets very quickly, but they'll definitely wear down quicker than metal ones - just depends how much you play it!

@isabelifernandes5192 5 месяцев назад

Have this instrument in eletric version??

@AnarchyInTheUkuleleTV 5 месяцев назад

Yep! There's also a version that comes with a pickup :)

@AnarchyInTheUkuleleTV 11 месяцев назад

@billybollockhead5628 7 месяцев назад

I would LOVE for a youtube "reviewer" to take the "pro" version and take the back electrics panel off and show people what they're actually getting. And how it'd be pretty impossible to replace the battery too..

@AnarchyInTheUkuleleTV 7 месяцев назад

Interesting to hear about the battery - we haven't got our hands on a pro version yet, but if we do we'll give it a look!

@billybollockhead5628 7 месяцев назад

@@AnarchyInTheUkuleleTV : well after my 3rd one, I’m just going to assume all these are really bad. I wouldn’t recommend Enya to anyone after my experience. The electronics inside seem to be very ropey. I’ve had two which stopped charging fate a week, and one which wouldn’t charge out of box. Awful. And the battery seems glued in.

@josephw.manissr.6934 Год назад

Would love to have one but not for a lefty.

@PaulMansellukulele Год назад

ah thats a real shame

@AnarchyInTheUkuleleTV Год назад

I guess this has become more of a problem with the popularity of the cutaway!

@rossydv Год назад

I have one and love it. But I dropped it and has a tiny crack. Should I be concerned?

@PaulMansellukulele Год назад

I have a few ukes with cracks in and they normally survive ok. Its not ideal as they can get bigger over time but hopefully you will be ok with it....

@AnarchyInTheUkuleleTV Год назад

It could effect the resonance but I’d say while it’s not making and buzzing or unwanted noise you’ll be fine with it.

@spinnersue17 6 месяцев назад

Thank you for your great review Paul. I've been wanting one of those for ages. Tell me one thing please...is it quite lightweight? I have the Enya Cherry Blossom concert in mahogany and I love it but as I have an injury to my upper arm/shoulder, I am on the lookout for a lightweight uke. Thanks. Sue

@AnarchyInTheUkuleleTV 6 месяцев назад

It's just a smidge over 500g, so lighter than a lot of concerts - and I should think a lot lighter than a mahogany one!

@spinnersue17 6 месяцев назад

@AnarchyInTheUkuleleTV that's great, thank you Paul. 😊

@SynthiaVan 5 месяцев назад

Yeah, that's Carbon Fiber and Plastic, and I'm Genghis Khan and American.

@AnarchyInTheUkuleleTV 5 месяцев назад

Well Mr Khan, according to the manufacturer it is made of a blend of polycarbonate and carbon fibre - although we're not in the position to test it!

@PaulMansellukulele Год назад

many thanks

@AnarchyInTheUkuleleTV Год назад

@JonHancockUK Год назад

Do you think that the saddle could (or should) be flattened to address the differing string heights?

@PaulMansellukulele Год назад

A friend (Marius) pointed out there could be a slight radius on the fret board which causes it. To be honest it’s so minor I wouldn’t bother doing anything about it buddy

@AnarchyInTheUkuleleTV Год назад

I agree with Marius, I think it’s actually just matching the fingerboard

@sunnyscott4876 11 месяцев назад

I just got mine and frankly, I'm not as enamored with it as everyone seems to be. It's small. The black frets makes it hard to see where my fingers are. I am having a hard time with it. I bought it because of all the glowing reviews. I think my Oscar Schmidt is much, much nicer. I'll keep it but I don't think I will ever love it..

@AnarchyInTheUkuleleTV 11 месяцев назад

I agree it’s not a uke id ‘love’ but it plays nicely for a travel uke
