    I haven't receive any compensation from Enya for this video. I bought the ukes myself. The LED uke system I designed and built myself.

    The description for the tenor version indicates that it can also be used with an amp. Is that an output jack on the bottom? I e ordered one but haven’t received it yet. Awesome playing!!

    • @MarksUkuleleTips
      @MarksUkuleleTips  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Yeah, it has an output jack. The Acoustic Plus is disabled if you plug in a cable, so it's an either/or situation. The jack is on the bottom right, the same placement as you would find on a Fender Telecaster.

    Hey! Wondering if you can use an adapter to plug this into headphones to not disturb the household! Please answer if you can! :) great video!

    • @MarksUkuleleTips
      @MarksUkuleleTips  10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      There is no headphone jack. It is a somewhat quieter uke than normal, but not by much. If you turn the effects on, they don't actually make the uke much louder, they just change the sound of the instrument with a tiny transducer on the back. It's a tricky technology to explain.
      If you need the uke to be properly quiet, you might be interested in something like a Stick style ukulele, like a Risa Stick, and a Vox Amplug 2 (hey have headphone jacks) and the sticks are the quietest style of ukulele, they're barely audible acoustically.

    Hello! May I ask an update about the color of your white enya ukulele, since its been around a year did the color turned yellowish or did it stay white? Because I am planning to get one so I was wondering if it'll stay the same after a few years

    • @MarksUkuleleTips
      @MarksUkuleleTips  2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Yeah, it has stayed white. I haven't noticed any yellowing. I'd imagine if it was exposed to something like cigarette smoke, that might yellow it, but I haven't noticed any yellowing with mine.

    Mark, watched quite a few reviews on this instrument but this is the first one where somebody dives into the thing 🤓 Interesting! I am wondering how fragile the whole effects-unit is. Like, if you use this instrument for an outdoor banger … would that speak against it?

    • @MarksUkuleleTips
      @MarksUkuleleTips  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      There's only one way to find out really. I wouldn't imagine it's water-proof, if that's what you're thinking. It's also probably a bit quieter than you'd imagine. Like it's not an amplifier per se, it's more like it takes the existing acoustic sound and modifies it to add the effects to it. It's basically an acoustic sound, plus reverb or relay or chorus.

    How do you change the strings, is it difficult? Thanks!😁

    • @MarksUkuleleTips
      @MarksUkuleleTips  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The bridge has a hole and a slot for each string. You tie the end of the string into a knot, put it in the hole, then run the string into the slot. The knot should prevent the string from slipping through the slot.

    • @susanspellman4888
      @susanspellman4888 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you, it doesn't sound too difficult to change the strings. Do you know if a low G string could be put on this ukulele? I read somewhere that you couldn't because of carbon fiber body & the material of a low G string will eventually scratch the ukulele?
      Do you recommend the Nova U concert acoustic plus ukulele as a relatively easy & fun instrument to play? I'm a beginner player & I own an acoustic/electric Fender Dhani Harrison tenor that I love so I already own an amplifier.
      Are there any other acoustic/electric Enya ukeleles that you'd recommend? I know Enya makes solid wood ones that are way more expensive. I was attracted to the Nova U for the price and the acoustic plus feature, and it looks fun to play! Thanks again for any information! 😁

    • @MarksUkuleleTips
      @MarksUkuleleTips  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@susanspellman4888 I have tried putting a low G on, but it caused some pretty ugly intonation issues, so for that reason I wouldn't recommend it.
      If you put a wound string on one of these normal Enya Novas, it will erode the plastic frets and ruin the uke. Hence them bringing out the Pro, which was basically launched to combat that issue. Its metal frets can withstand a wound string.
      Basically I wouldn't modify it unless you're a luthier or an experienced technician. Even then, it's probably better to aim for a Pro instead if you plan on doing any modifications.
      If you buy it and use it as is, then yes, it is a fun instrument. I use one in the music school that I teach in.
      The nicest Enya's do come with quite a steep price tag.
      In terms of electrification, there are 3 categories, 1) Acoustic 2) Semi-acoustic 3) Electric. The best electric ukuleles around are made by Fanner. They aren't cheap, but are extremely beloved by the electric ukulele community, as they are actually made to a high standard, unless basically every other manufacturer (including Flight). The world of semi-acoustics is huge, basically every company is making some kind of semi-acoustic uke. So it's mostly a matter of budget and preference. If you're just starting out in that world, then maybe take a look at Kala, Ohana, Snail, Pono, Millar etc. If you're a millionaire, you can look at the more aspirational brands such as Martin, aNueNue, Rebel, Coast, and if you're into Hawaiian ukes, all of the K brands, Kamaka, Kanile'a, Kiwaya, KoAloha.
      I tried to not list ones that I've had to do serious repairs on, though I have had to fix Kalas, Snails, Ohana's, Ponos 😂 So 🤷🏻‍♂
      Almost every instrument can benefit with a setup by a luthier. Most instruments are set up pretty badly leaving the factory.

      I ordered a Nov U concert with the effects earlier today in red, I really wanted orange but it was out of stock, and I'm going to leave the high G string on it as you recommended. My Fender has a low G string. I frequent a local music store so if there's any issues with the set-up I'll go to that shop. I can't wait to play it and I know between my Fender & the Enya, I'll be having hours of fun strumming along! 😁

      Yes. You'd have to scratch it pretty deep to see the black polycarbonate. If I recall, the white stuff chipped when drilling, so it is probably more like a sort of white plastic coating rather than normal paint.
