The NEW Enya Nova Ukulele vs. The OLD Enya Nova Ukulele (Review)

[@michellelawhorn5707]

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

[@jeannemurphy6875]

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!

[@Teeum5]

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.

[@denishdutrisac3413]

Enjoyed your analysis very much.

[@Bebe-rn2fh]

just bought the red concert enya for my mum yesterday, it's pretty neat

[@dh2602]

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

[@WanderingUkes]

Recently bought the red concert. Changed the strings which made a nice difference.

[@ArdoRdot]

What strings did you use

[@aimee.guitarist97]

Always love Enya's Uke!

[@andrewcaddell2670]

Great review! 👏

[@sherlynn7211]

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

[@wetbaloney]

I have an "old" one and it does have fret markers on the side of the neck

[@coolbudukeforever7305]

Thx Vasco! Good work!

[@gordonmculloch4904]

Got the old one, and love it. 👍

[@gato7908]

I honestly like the sound of the old one better but maybe it's the strings or the size difference

[@yeoldefoxeh254]

Both

[@reneeaubuchon6683]

I have both the concert and the tenor and to me the concert has a cleaner, crisper sound that I really appreciate.

[@thebunnisher109]

@@reneeaubuchon6683 have you tried changing out the strings?

[@reneeaubuchon6683]

@@thebunnisher109 That's a good idea! Thank you!

[@thebunnisher109]

@@reneeaubuchon6683 I’m eager to hear the result if you perform that test! Might just put me over the edge to buy the new Pro model.

[@greggh]

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.

[@HoldinCoffeeReturns]

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!

[@petercameron8832]

Very good, I watch Barry Maz all the time and you are good also!

[@charisvaughnvocals]

I just got my nova pro and the sustain is disappointing. Has anyone found strings that give the Pro the same sustain as the concert?

[@ominkan3129]

The red one sounds brighter and more projection.

[@kevinbarry3480]

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

[@petercameron8832]

Good comparison!

[@mrswindsorlv]

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!

[@kibathedarkheartles]

I dig the deeper sound of the newer ukulele honestly

[@jasneskis]

That’s because it is a tenor. He should compare old concert to new concert.

[@deniseshaw3871]

I like my bright sound too

[@thebunnisher109]

I’ll consider the Pro if they make a concert version. I like the banjolele punch and sustain. Also a case carry strap, and keep it pitch black.

[@sourgibbon3591]

What's the song called at 6:40 to 7:12

[@rossydv]

I've bought the red one and absolutely love it!!

[@vladimirarellano7137]

Nice intro 😎

[@meissoun]

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.

[@lluis9377]

Great video!! 🤟🤟👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@sherlynn7211]

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.

[@_charwyn]

06:42 why is it not in tune though, is it supposed to be like that at all? Seems like it shouldn''t be like that. It's better on the tenor one, but still...

[@SeekingTruth2023]

Thanks a lot!! What is the name of the song you play at 4:44? How can I find that song? Greetings from Germany :)

[@WIPO.]

It's called La vie en rose

[@SeekingTruth2023]

Thank you! A friend recommended La Vie en Rose to me, and I didn't really like it (by just hearing the triads) But with playing the single notes, it sounds beautiful. I didn't exspect it to be this song 😅 so Thank you!

[@WIPO.]

@@SeekingTruth2023 Some parts of it are pretty awesome! I'm so happy to do so!

[@AnnesreborndollsandfunW]

I want both . I hope to get the new one for Xmass or in October. Will see . But I want both .

[@johnlennon6739]

Hi which is better the metal frets or plastic frets? Thank you

[@jasneskis]

Can you compare the Enya concert carbon fiber to Donna carbon fiber concert ukulele. The low end ones.

[@PalmdaleGal]

Do you mean Donner?

[@petargeorgiev2738]

Are you from Bulgaria? If it so, from where you order this Enya Ukes? I saw that shipping is between 55 - 90 dollars for some models the shippment is more money than the actual Uke.

[@raincloud1898]

Thank you, Vasko! I'd like to buy an Enya tenor ukulele. Do you know where I can do it in BG or in EU alternatively?

[@yeoldefoxeh254]

Nowhere. You can order from the Enya site. They will be asking for a shipping price that is up to the ukulele's cost.....

[@mervitirkkonen7443]

I also live in Europe, and found out, that there is Cascha Carbon that looks just the same.... but I have had no possibility to make a comparison (I have Enya Nova U, ordered it from ULTP store in USA, but because of the extra customs and taxes and shipping etc. it would always be better to get instruments inside EU)

[@raincloud1898]

@@mervitirkkonen7443 Yes, Cascha is the same as the Enya concert uke. I have it and am very happy about. The tenor looks great but there's no Cascha model available yet. Thank you!

Tutorial for 'the hall of the mountain king' .Plss

[@chantalsaulnier2746]

Thank you for the review tutorial. Do you know if they have the new one, the grey, in a concert size ? 👋🙋‍♀️

[@mingpl2077]

😅 Thank you for the excellent review. … I’m just not sure about the recycling part of carbon fibre. I guess people don’t throw it out as often as other items 😅

[@HoldinCoffeeReturns]

That was from Sing?

[@davidc10000]

Outdoor uke better get a phone to take orders. These ukulele are kicking their butts in price and sound as well as options..

[@kyletorres7266]

The metal frets creates a higher quality tone though it the frets make it resonate less

[@sonijam]

The concert sounds beautiful. The tenor sounds dull.

[@rephaelreyes8552]

Yo Vasko any plans to make some cover with your piano someday?

[@bruhbruh4635]

You mean there's other variant of ukelele?

[@ivanterrible7362]

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.

[@graemebarrett8419]

Old one sounds better. I have one.

[@stopgrilling6613]

IT'S COOL ✨😧

[@yeoldefoxeh254]

All good until you want to order to Central Europe. Then you pay THE PRICE OF THE UKULELE in shipping! No thanks....

[@gginbed5651]

i think they both sound a bit off.

I just can pay a simple ukulele xd
