70 y/o guitarist here. I love it! TY👍

I'm a saturday AND sunday player! I like the concept and i like the sound. It's innovative!

I bought an Enya Go guitar a little over a year ago. It’s a scaled down travel instrument. It has all those features, except no humbuckers. I take it with me everywhere. It’s great! I did add fret markers, I wish it came with inlays. Enyas’ customer service is very responsive, too!

Pretty cool! Thanks, Mark, I hope you are well!

Keep it up👍

Great video !

Some lovely jazz sounds in the clean.

I remember when smooth fret ends were standard… not a feature, but here we are.

The parallel mode sounds really good. The first mode sounded very thin and tinny.

Actual I wanted to hear the 10 watt speaker.

Nice review!! I played a guitar for years with no inlays except the 12th fret. You get used to it, and I think it makes you better, in a way - no relying on dots, etc. And you still have the side markers. I knew friends that couldn't play it because of no inlays lol.

I bought one a month ago and love it!

I bought one the other day... I like it.

Love the guitar reviews Mark!! It sounds great. Is it the future ....not sure, but you really make it sing!! Cheers 👋🖤🦋🖤

I have the acoustic version and I love it for travel and writing.

Amazin

I would say that this is a lovely looking guitar with plenty of features for what it costs. Great for practice and for exploring new sounds. I tend to go for traditional guitars (eg Les Paul 59 Reissue etc) but it is refreshing to see innovative companies that push boundaries.

Nice overview, thanks. I do wonder why it needs a truss rod if the neck is carbon fiber?

I think I mentioned it to him and it cool

This would make a great practice guitar.

Absolutely fantastic have a wonderful day Mark also today is my oldest sister birthday ❤😊

This guitar really interests me but id definitely have to test drive it myself first , im baffled by carbon fibre guitars and not enamored of the acoustic ones, but this may just be right!

That's interesting. Went and checked out the website. It is more affordable then I had expected. Could be a good back yard beater? Carbon fiber, should be tough.

The Casio of guitars. Better than not having a guitar.

Good holiday guitar too

1st to view, greetings from Tanzania East Africa

Did you playing using the built in speaker, I am curious to see. I like how in clean, it sounded like a acoustic too.

Mark Z are you ever open for studio work??

Wonder if they could do a bass version, keep the shape, drop the speaker. No neck dive, long scale. I would buy that.

Love the concept - but the sounds that come with it are not so good ;-)

i haven’t payed it, but in the video the clean sounds seem a bit plastic and the overdriven ones a bit sterile. i also question all this electronic extras. what about batteries? will you still be able to control it with future phone generations? my oldest guitar is more than 40 years old and still doing pretty well. i changed the wiring myself some 30years ago, but if something else needs to be fixed, i just bring it to any guitar shop somewhere. on the other hand i also have a variax full of electronics, not sure if i could get some maintenance for it in ten years time. the volume pot is doing strange things already…

I want to know the material of the neck. Is it also carbon fiber or is it wood. I'm hoping it's a carbon fiber neck. It would never warp because of temp and humidity.

Personally , I think it looks very good . I know there’s lots of purists out there that are saying “ it’s all about tone woods “ but it looks decent enough and if it comes in at the right price they will sell. I like the built in speaker, like you said it’s good for practice without setting up your amp. Having said all that I’m just a hobby guitarist and I’m sure professional guitarists will not appreciate it. 👍👍

sub $500 for a reason. Any guitar with an onboard speaker and effects controlled by a smart phone will never make it past a bedroom. Play it hard for an hour and then tell me its still in tune and you still love it.

Pretty nice for $400 shipped!

Handy guitar specially good for quick practice ,parties etc - should be part of one's collection if you are a guitarist

The surprising this is the price. I was not expecting carbon to be so cheap

For teens 🎸 & beginner's 🎸

That’s a pretty nice instrument. It’s carbon fiber, so temperature doesn’t matter and you can take it anywhere.

Did I miss it or did he do a review of a guitar with an onboard speaker without playing through the onboard speaker? If I missed it, sorry. If it’s not there….WHY?

It's okay. Sound-wise, can't compete with real stuff though.

Here we go again, really love you channel, typing this before watching. I bought one of these, not as described as most KZfaqrs have reviewed, how much of that is personal preference? I agree it plays fantastic, I’m a fender / ovation guy. So I was surprised. Volume is terrible especially with clean tones, distortion sounds are rattly, all presets sound terrible when battery starts to get low. Only 4 presets within guitar, must use app for more (not a lot of presets to choose from, unless I’m missing how to get more?) (no tone knob) no onboard tuner also. Weight seems unbalanced, to me.

I have the smaller all-acoustic version, love it! Carbon Fiber is definitely the future of guitars. It sounds great and never goes out of tune!

There's millions of secondhand guitars, who needs a new one

I have the acoustic version not that bad for a cheap guitar

This guitar sounds like the makers cribbed form a bunch of other stuff: Parker Guitars (carbon fiber neck) , Brian May ( zero fret), onboard effects ( line 6) and the sound didn't translate well via KZfaq: fizzy and thin. Interesting ideas, making a kitchen sink guitar. Nice demo.

It sounds awesome. Must be due to their careful selection of tone woods. 😜

It would be cool if you could take it outside and break it out around the camp fire. You didn't mention the power or batteries. I'll check it out. 👍

I'll tell you what? I'm 62 and I'm buying one.

Enya must be paying top dollar for videos because all the guitar KZfaqrs are putting out a video.

I never buy a guitar without position marker inlays or dots on the fret board. All 9 or 10 of them. Soon as I see a guitar without I move on.

My windows are made of wood, my pipes are made of wood, all my guitars too.

Is this the future? Maybe. It is not the first guitar with integrated effects, I think the "Vox Phantom" had that as well, or other models like the "Gibson Firebird X". It can be a solution for beginners with all gear in one guitar to start, but in my opinion it sounds too poor to use it for recording or stage.

Sounds like a toy guitar lol! Years ago I made a guitar at home with a book and 6 elastic bands wrapped around the book and 2 pencils one on either side to Prop up the elastic bands, I'm thinking now I could market that, after hearing this.

I don't think it sounds bad, especially not as bad as some people seem to think. I'd have to actually play one to form a real opinion. It's always kind of hard to tell how something sounds through a youtube video, also my speakers are ancient which doesn't help.

Sounds fine. It sounds like you're recording from a headphone or AUX out. Not a great representation of a guitar's "true sound".

Definitely sounds thin with onboard effects. Cool , but as is I look at it as a great kids guitar. Drop the effects, add volume and tone and then we can try it again.

I don’t know 🤭

I thought it sounded okay but what do they cost , it might be an expensive gimmick 🎸👍

Oh hell no! Mahogany all the way. Got to have tone wood.

I wouldn’t spend a dime on that thing. Built in speaker, built in amp, no thanks

Has some great specs but I still don't like it. Leave the carbon fiber for the super cars guitar's are made from wood. And sorry but hate the electronics.

Lets look down the road a bit... after the one year warranty has passed, and the battery stops working... Who will you take this carbon fiber composite shell of a guitar to for repairs. Will there even be replacement parts for this guitar. Remember this is a digital guitar. Once its battery no longer holds a charge It will not work when plugged into an amp. or audio interface. I don't know about anyone else but when I invest in a musical instrument I want it to last. I have tried contacting Enya-music in regards to this and have not received any response from them. Has anyone else been successful in contacting Enya music. I like the look and sound of these guitars, but I must admit I do not like the idea of just throwing money away on anything that has no service support. Its not like your standard instrument that you can take it to any music shop for repairs. I wish those who review products such as these would look at the full picture before posting any positive or negative comments. This is not meant to discredit Mark, he is a wonderful musician and teacher. Thank you Mark for your efforts in bring new and interesting equipment to light.

Fell asleep around "it's really light you can move it from room to room".

Sounds really sharp and twangy. Hard hard and brittle. Not for me.

What do you get from Enya for making this video? I've seen a ton of youtubers promoting this thing. I actually bought this and sent it back. It's a plastic guitar with no soul. The internal speaker sounds like garbage and the effects are amateur. If you turn it up it creates horrible feedback and the push/pull knob kept coming off! That said, it was playable as a regular guitar and the pickups were pretty good but I don't need another regular guitar. Nice try Enya but if the internal speaker is unsatisfying I have no reason for this. Maybe version 2.0 will be better.

Fun fact, carbon fiber conducts electricity.

$400 carbon fiber guitar...guess it's cool for rocking out on the whitewater rafting or kayak trip.....if it's waterproof.

No i like my 80 pound Les Paul’s. No i really do lol

No offence,to you but, it's like electric cars, at my age (70) I'll never be interested in it, but I'm sure the millennials will lap it up.

My ear hears the fiber and it lacks body. Kinda dead. I guess with enough pedals tone can be achieved but not in this vid.

Something just doesn't sound right ... Toyish ... maybe I stick with my real guitar...

1) No 2) No

I don't see one advantage here. Yes, I watched the video.

But you can t use pedals with it.....Meh

You lost me at carbon fiber.

I think it sounds crappy

cool playing man, awfull guitar

It really sucks my friend. Horrible look, horrible sound. I think traditional guitars are still way ahead.

No it’s not I’m still trying to learn the lead Mama let ‘em play.
