Carbon Fiber SMART GUITAR w/Looper - Enya Music NEXG 2 Review

[@oliverkky]

Every guitar review should have at least one Tenacious D riff and you absolutely nailed it!

[@ScottUhlMusic]

Hahaha thanks. And I put 2 in 😊

[@drothberg3]

This guitar is appealing to me as a combination travel, late-night-silent, and looping toy guitar. Only thing holding me back is that I bought the full-sized acoustic carbon fiber guitar and didn’t like the feel or sound, so wound up selling it.

[@alanjohnson2853]

I bought an Enya carbon fiber travel guitar a few months ago. It has the built in effects, speaker, bluetooth and more. It's great! I really am amazed by the quality! I bought it to use when we are traveling in the RV. It's very lightweight and rugged. I had to contact customer service for some questions about the app. The response was speedy and very helpful.

[@ScottUhlMusic]

Yeah, I love their carbon fiber guitars! Very well designed!

[@Justtme.vedanshi]

I am from India and I was planning to buy this guitar from Enya. When I went to the shipping page, I saw that they didn't ship to India and that hit hard. Overall If I were to recommend something to Enya, It woul be shipping wordwide. I am crying

[@ScottUhlMusic]

Ah bummer, I’m sorry to hear that :(

[@laloojena]

The dealer in India is Procraft in mumbai

[@Justtme.vedanshi]

@@laloojena they make it more expensive than what it should be by adding the shipping cost

[@ChrisBrown-oo4bf]

Great explanation of the features and playing to show the versatility. Good demo of everything as usual. Thanks.

[@ScottUhlMusic]

Thanks Chris 😊

[@MelaniaT-r6m]

I have watched several review for this product. Yours is the best.

[@ScottUhlMusic]

Thank you 🙏

[@georgewidmer7818]

You did it to me again, I just saw this guitar last night at a open mic and was impressed when the guy played CSN on it. He left before I could talk to him and boom you have it this morning.It sounded great thru a single Bose stack system which caught me ear. This will cure my concern on how to get a guitar on the plane with me. Thank You....... Oh By the way I did order the CCA-C12 from your past video and they work and fit great........

[@ScottUhlMusic]

Nice! Good timing :) and yeah those CCA’s are great for the price!

[@nialljosephosullivan4109]

I really love this demo. I have watched it a number of times. Helped me figure out how to swipe in the different effects in the app 🙂

[@ScottUhlMusic]

Thanks! Glad to help!

[@raymorgan4657]

I recently picked one up and I'm really impressed with the sound. One additional feature I rarely see mentioned is the AI Sound Profiling. You can use the app to record ant guitar and it attempts to match the sound as a new preset. I'm using it to profile my Martin, and it does a pretty decent job.

[@laurencebell7755]

Very well explained...I'm saving this review...

[@ScottUhlMusic]

Thank you 🙏

[@paullongden-musician7113]

lots of great features for the price point.

[@ScottUhlMusic]

Definitely!

[@StingrayMk1]

Thank you for this review. Thorough, well filmed and enjoyable to watch. As always!

[@ScottUhlMusic]

Much appreciated!

[@NatalieRath]

This is the greatest and best review in the world....

[@kare9875]

First time watching a video from you. I enjoyedit andwill watch more. Thank you :).

[@ScottUhlMusic]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@picksalot1]

Amazing piece of gear. How quiet/loud is the guitar when not plugged in? I often play late at night, so an acoustically "silent" mode and listening through headphones works best for me. A couple of design suggestions maybe you can include in your feedback to the company: It would probably make the guitar even more comfortable to play if the detachable bar had a curve/radius on it where the forearm rests. Another thing to consider is the location of the interface. It appears to be parallel with the bridge, and that places it under the forearm where it might be hard to see and access. Perhaps it would be better if it were located more towards the fretboard. Excellent demo. Thanks

[@ScottUhlMusic]

Thanks! And it’s pretty quiet, like an electric guitar not plugged in, but a hair louder 👍 thanks for the suggestions!

[@crashwg]

I was wondering the same. Found the answer I needed here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qXbTiIemqLKZpZo

[@monkusbee]

Do you have to use the supplied mic or can you use your own mic?

[@gorimus]

Nice review. I mainly play the electric guitar, but I like this one for its portability and looper function. Can I get some decent mild distortion sounds (for blues) from this? I presume it uses acoustic strings, but can I change it to a standard 9-42 electric guitar for better bending? Can the loop be saved, and how long is the loop length?

[@Mooseboy08]

Darn you Scott! Pretty much every time you show a product I think to myself, "Hmmm… I could use one of those" ;)

[@ScottUhlMusic]

Hahaha that’s how I feel watching KZbin video demos too 😅

[@bakeblaker01]

First time watcher, great review. I am one of those guys that really enjoys the dorky video meme things that you add in. If I buy this guitar it'll be in large part due to your review.

[@ScottUhlMusic]

Thank you 🙏 I appreciate that!

[@ironblast5]

This looks like a cool option for busking

[@ScottUhlMusic]

Definitely!!

[@ThinkingCap_]

Bro I just got this guitar and I've always only played acoustics and am a fish out of water. Very grateful for this video breaking everything down. I managed to loop a basic little song earlier an soloed over it, was so much fun lol Do you have any favorite custom presets? Would be awesome if you made a small vid on this! There's no real resources online yet as this is such an obscure instrument And the fact that you played Tenacious D +10 points, subbed

[@ScottUhlMusic]

Haha thanks! And I really liked that ambient preset, but most of the acoustic ones sounded great to me!

[@NatalieRath]

Jokes aside! I am thinking of an all in one guitar, and this one looks perfect! Thanks for the review, I might just get one tomorrow! I'm new to guitars, but gosh, darn it, this one looks to have everything I need to start with.

[@ringbling420]

Lol I talked my buddy into getting the first nexg and knowing he's gonna be mad in a funny way when I show up with this is gonna be hilarious!

[@tonepilot]

Wow, this is something else. I dig it.

[@vinnyjr7029]

Sounds great Scott lol 😁. I love the looper function and the mic is a great feature and the wireless pedal genius too.. 80watt pa excellent feature and yes the head set mic would be an excellent set up space saving feature too. Thanks again Scott for another great review. Any chance of getting this a little bit cheaper ie a discount? That would be great for me.. Cheers bro 😎 👍 ✨💜💭🎶

[@ScottUhlMusic]

Thanks! And I don’t have a discount code for this one. But thanks for watching!

[@Malachiah]

Got one coming my way - the Basic version, which is just the guitar and the pedal (it was at 20% off on Amazon in a flash sale). The charger and the mic will come with time, I'm a patient guy.

[@ScottUhlMusic]

Nice! Enjoy 🤘🤘

[@MariaBethaniaCabrera]

Big fan here. I pretty much never see anything missing in your reviews. You always cover every feature and in a great manner. I noticed that you didn't mentioned the Acoustic Profiling feature in this guitar which is a big deal for some players. I'm wondering why. There is very little information about this feature online. Can you import profiles/IRs or you create your own profiles directly in the guitar or both? Maybe in a future video? Thanks so much for your videos.

[@ScottUhlMusic]

Thanks for watching! Yeah I seem to have missed that, but I don’t remember if you can create your own, I don’t believe so but I could be wrong

[@MariaBethaniaCabrera]

Thanks for your prompt reply. What would you say about the factory profiles. Are they realistic enough? Also, can you bypass it? How many profiles come loaded with? Sorry I have so many questions.

[@erartne]

Thanks for the video. I am a guitarist and often play in smali pub as one man band style. The guitar looks very interesting. I saw that there is also a nylon string model available. I wanted to ask which one gives "one point" more in sound quality. Tks for your answer

[@ScottUhlMusic]

I haven’t tried the other one, just this one 👍

[@erartne]

@@ScottUhlMusic Thanks for your answer

[@rastapirate1969]

Now they need to come out with a bass guitar with the same toys.

[@kimpaulandes3840]

Does the Built in Speaker mutes when when you plug into the Headphones or 1/4 out?

[@ScottUhlMusic]

I believe so, yes

[@NicHeuwGuitar]

Nice review! Very interesting, it will be nice as a travel guitar 🤔 and to experiment in making quick multi track compositions/ arrangements. How long does a single full charge last?

[@ScottUhlMusic]

Definitely great for that! And I believe it’s 8 hours? I don’t remember. I should have put that in the video 😅

[@GhostRider-li6km]

great review!

[@ScottUhlMusic]

Thanks!

[@parthmenon]

This looks amazing. How does it compare to the GTRS P800, especially when it comes to playing metal?

[@ScottUhlMusic]

This one definitely isn’t meant for metal IMO. GTRS wins for metal

[@parthmenon]

I wonder if they'll release a "for metal" version soon. Their products look amazing 🤩 Thanks for the amazing reviews!

[@BluNoseReindeer]

I wish they’d update the older version. It’s a great guitar form factor but the software in the first gen is lacking

[@ScottUhlMusic]

I never used the old one, but I know this is a big update!

[@christinaraine2480]

Cool concept 🤘😎

[@ScottUhlMusic]

Agreed 🤘🤘

[@Chikosi777]

I love this guitar

[@andreinitu_ro]

Hi, I am a beginner and I simply do not know what guitar to buy? I found over internet some of the guitars I would like: - Lava Me 4 Spruce - Lava Me pro - Enya Nexg 2 - Enya X4 Pro From your experience, which one could be better for me? I would like to add that I want to use the guitar mostly with headphones …I do not want my neighbours to hear me :-) Thank you!

[@NatalieRath]

This comes with a truck load of accessories. The other Lava Me products don't. All comes separate which is annoying as heck

[@Roland-Bach]

Hi Scott, that's a verry great guitar. Can i change it with my Variax JTV-89F now 🙂🙂🙂 It's not clear for me: Can i play only over the included speaker or can i play it with my Helix or Catalyst over guitar IN? Can i switch of the included speaker, when i want to play with Helix or Catalyst? Do you know where to mbuy in Germany? I can't find a Store. Go on with your fantastic videos. Greetings Roland

[@ScottUhlMusic]

You can definitely go 1/4” out and use it with that ever you want. I’m not sure where to buy in Germany, but the link to buy in their website is in the video description 👍

[@traveltalessg]

Another great review! How’s the playability on these guitars?

[@ScottUhlMusic]

Thank you, and they are great! I do recommend actually getting the full size one, but these play extremely well

[@Nadav_Zaidman]

Can you make a video about dyi lightshow?

[@ScottUhlMusic]

I’ve done a couple of videos about programming DMX lighting on my channel if that’s what you are interested in 👍

[@erartne]

Tks a lot for the answer

[@machareo1]

Just got one got a shit fret buzz on low F and Bb and Eb so first fret is to low defo not gonna do a fret job on brand new guitar as it will require all frets to be lowered heres hoping supplier will swap it for a good one no probs lets see hey

[@carlnelson1568]

Awesome!!!

[@ScottUhlMusic]

🤘🤘🤘

[@AndreyKozlov83]

What is the maximum lenght of one loop in bars (or seconds)? Is it possible to save track in guitar memory?

[@ScottUhlMusic]

I don’t know the maximum length, but it’s pretty long. And I don’t believe it has a way to save. Hopefully in a firmware up 👍 that would be a nice feature

[@BillCodyColorado]

So your subscribers now number 44.1K. That is a mysteriously familiar number.

[@ScottUhlMusic]

Hahahahaha that’s awesome! I didn’t notice that 😊

hello sir, how many hours can it run? tnx

That’s a good question… I think it’s like 8 hours? That’s what’s nice about the stand… it’ll just charge it when you are done using it or taking a break
