    I like the sound of the concert ukulele, I like the slightly brighter sound and longer sustain. I found it interesting. Thank you 😊

    Great review, thank you! I prefer the sound of the tenor, though I also think I'd like the Enya strings. Have ordered the black one: can't wait til it arrives!

    Notable difference in sound. Older model one looks like a toy but is noticeably more melodic.

    Vasko, you did a good job. So I hope that you will do a comparison between the old and hopefully a new concert model very soon (yes, Enya... do a concert model!!!).
    What I think I have noticed is, that there are no or at least less fingerprints on the new tenor model - so there must be an improvement on the surface of this uke as well.

    Tenors use different string gage than concert usually. I have concert enya, really interested in this new tenor. Great comparison vid.. thank you .

    I just ordered the upgraded Nova U Concert plus/electric. From every video I watched the Tenor is just a little too mellow and too mids for a Uke. Enya's Concert was already a little deeper sounding than most other Concerts. Glad I went with the Concert. The metal frets would have been nice though.

    I have all the sizes of these ukuleles in “black” (more like dark grey): soprano, concert and the new tenor. I also have their acoustic guitar that looks the same (it plays nice).
    I also did not like the strings on the tenor, too stiff for me. I like the feel and sound of the concert strings. I will be changing the tenor ukulele’s strings. I’m glad I’m not the only one who didn’t like them!

  • @kevinbarry3480

    I think the tenor had better sound but the lack of sustain deadened that sound somewhat. Could be, it needed different strings.

    I have the red Enya. Actually, the thin strings hurt my fingers and I replaced them. Other than that, I still love it and I wouldn’t replace it with the new model. I also prefer the sound of the old model.

    Enya did good by adding the metal frets. People complained that their concert size had frets wearing down. With the extra tension of the tenor size, that could have been a problem. Question: what is that nut made of on the Pro model?

    • @peppat27

      nut width is 1 1/2 inches according to the Enya website. Can't wait to get mine!

    I just bought tenor with trans acoustic.. the chorus sound on concert is now called effects on tenor,, and it has a continuous bells sound if volume is over half way.. which i findxannoying.. could be mine is faulty,, not sure. Over all.. acoustic off,, it sounds ok.. deeper. Love the frets dont shave my fingers .. lol and can see them too now. For its price, i think its pretty good,, low maintenance . These are great for kids i think.

    I've been waiting for Enya to release the tenor of this style. I just moved 3/4 of the way across the U.S. yo much dryer climate so I gave away 15 ukes as I didn't want to drop an additional $300 bucks on humidifiers. I would suspect the carbon fiber would hold up better in a desert environment. Thanks for to side by side comparison.
