I am moving from one damp house to the next damp house. The current one i have to keep all windows open year round. All tha tmoisture works wonders on guitar necks....not. I have to fix intonation like 5 or 6 times a year and the wooden neck surprises me with no weird spots where a chord that formally sounded like chit now sounds ok or vice versa. I am sick of wood necks now.
Sounds great. Good price point. Effects sound heavy handed but I'm sure that can be adjusted easily enough and I'd think most would have outboard gear for that anyway. I'm getting tired of my finicky cedar and spruce top acoustics especially gigging during season changes. It sounded like there was a lot of string separation. Maybe too much . Not sure if that's the mic's or the guitar.
Every year, I can hear the improved sound in Carbon Fiber Guitars. Versatility, and stability are important features. I'm just waiting to see who will be the first to make the soundboard an LCD or some other form of display tech. Paint and Stains are so last century. 🤓
Sounds good, and I can't think of anything that comes close in the price range. It also solves the travel guitar issue. Easy to re do a gel coat and polish. I travelled most of my 20's with a Larrivee D-05. Not as pretty as it was.
You said the action on your guitar is super low. I bought one of these and the action on it is way too high. I tried adjusting the truss rod which didn’t seem to help much. I’m a little hesitant to adjust it more since it seems pretty tight. I guess I will try lighter gauge strings when I change them and if that doesn’t do it maybe shave down the saddle a little. I like the sound but feel that I would prefer it to be lighter weight and skip the electronics that make it weigh more. I wish Enya made this guitar with a regular acoustic pickup that is passive and doesn’t require a battery to be charged.
I honestly was hesitant, but after a ton of hot outdoor gigs year after year, I finally got one.. And it was worth it. Def a workhorse more leaning towards the gigging musician. But obviously people might like jammin at home with it too. Not having to worry about cold or humidity etc.. the sound takes a little getting used to, but at a live gig with a bridge or magnet pickup there isn’t too much of a noticeable difference
DAMN! I only need to hear the first pass to know this mo fo is tight..im sold. I agree about the effects being way to heavy but that body response w the pencil mics covers the buy !
I played one of this exact model last week. It sounds marvelous. My first thought playing it was, this sounds like a recording of an acoustic guitar. It was so even and clean.
Nice guitar but the effects are nonsens imho. They would be nice if you could use them unplugged. But plugged in there are better options. Thx for the demo 😊
I noticed the same people who bash carbon fiber guitars also believe that a solid body they can hear the difference between a rosewood and maple neck on a SOLID body electric guitar. I also bet a violinist will tell me how sweet a Stradivarius sounds compared to a $500 violin on a CD recording.
I know I am months late on this reply. Martins come with a high action so you can lower it to your spec. Easier to do that than to raise it. Some of the bluegrass guys like a very high action.
Lmao I played 2 of these and they don’t come close to some of my acoustics. My Yamaha ll16m blows that piece of shit out of the water. Way more fuller and louder with way more articulation and sustain and it growls . This thing sounded like a toy compared to my ll16m not even exaggerating but if you say so
Well Sir, I'd be careful if I were you... purists will come demanding your head now! How dare you say that is a pro level guitar compared with their custom $20K Martin with the ultra rare 50,000 year old Bamboozle African wood which arrived there after a volcano explosion in Hawaii sent a tree flying through the air and was carried by extinct birds to the Sahara desert...
I bought this Enya X3 Pro and it’s terrible! Sounds like a toy! Don’t waste your money. And Amazon Prime return process for this is a joke, 30-45 days before you see your money back and that’s after they rob 15% restocking fee for opening the box. No doubt this was a paid advertisement sponsored video. You don’t see common folk reviewing these for a reason.
Had no problem sent two back Nova Go SP1 dropped out of its case, was in rush got another one, but upgraded to the X3 Pro mini. Had a problem charging Sent it back Got another one Awesome little guitar, no problems, Amazon have been brilliant.

I live the van and boat life in very hot humid conditions so having a weather resistant guitar sounds great definitely hope to get one soon 👍

Seems like a nice guitar! Seems very durable. And it also seems to offer great space when playing the high frets.
For the price, this guitar cannot be beat! The effects are fun also. Lots of advantages to this guitar. Great demo of it as well.

We need more affordable 12-string carbon fiber acoustics; Rainsongs and Emeralds are fantastic, but I'd definitely shell out for an Enya 12.

Man carbon holly shit! Is there 12 strong version?

Wonder how it sounds unplugged and un-miced.
I played one of this exact model last week. It sounds marvelous. My first thought playing it was, this sounds like a recording of an acoustic guitar. It was so even and clean.
If I had the funds and was in the market for a carbon fiber guitar, I would seriously consider this one.
These seem really neat, especially for the price.
If this was Willie’s trigger, I would show little signs of wear after 50 years

Cool 🤘 thanks
It's all about the TOANFIBRES
I haven't seen that brand before. Looks great. I have played the Martin X1E at a Guitar Center, but on that particular guitar the action was too high.
You just shave the saddle down.Martins are excellent
I know I am months late on this reply.

I don't think you ever played one note on the low E acoustically / If you play through a pick-up , it is not acoustic .
In the first 35 seconds of the playing demo through the mics I counted 3 chords using the low E. Maybe you skipped ahead?
@@SteveSterlacci i relistened , I am not hearing much bass at all , maybe you skipped the low-=E when strumming .
Nothing beats a well made wood guitar. These would be fine for travel, but doesn't touch the sound of my Taylor. Not.Even.Close.
Thanks nick
Why is @@SteveSterlaccithanking @nickwebster80 for essentially a bash of him, AND of that instrument?
@DoIGetTube because it's easier than feeding trolls 🤷♂️ thanks to him for watching the video
The response from@@SteveSterlacciis heard and understood, and this TH-cam viewer stands corrected and chastised.
@@DoIGetTube i like your style! Thanks man
Guitar sounded good unplugged
what's the point of having effects in a guitar?
What's the point of having you in this world go die
uhmm to add more fun? i like effects myself especially reverb because i don't have a studio so there's no natural room reverb
Is this a sponsored video?
Yes
@@SteveSterlaccithen you should have said that in the description.
@@JamesRyanChapelow the sponsored content card comes up in the first few seconds. Thank you for your concern

🤣🤣🤣
You REALLY expect ANYONE to BELIEVE all that?
@@DoIGetTube r/whooooooooosh!
Yep they still sound like a plastic box. Electronics always sound pretty good but mic'd? Nope
Dark lighting, black shirt, black guitar.
Nothing to see here.
I guess like this comment 😉
Wasn't intended to be an insult, though I guess one could take it that way.
Just pointing out that we can see the subject of the video.
@patrickkelly9721 no worries. Just messing with ya.
Was hopeful given the title/thumbnail but... pass
All good Billy. Thanks for checking out the video and for your honesty 🤘
@@SteveSterlacci what a positive attitude! I'm going to try to do the same, rock on

Sent it back

Tone is disgustingly terrible. 😂 who wants an expensive guitar that sounds like a cheap fender acoustic.
