If you like music but have never had the chance to learn it in a disciplined way, this might be your opportunity to make it a reality. That is why today we are presenting a guitar, but not just any guitar, an intelligent one with interesting features that make it much more fun compared to a traditional guitar.
We are talking about the Enya NOVA GO SP1, a guitar made from carbon fiber instead of wood, which is a big advantage for beginners looking for something easy to transport. Trust me, a wooden guitar can be very sensitive to temperature changes such as heat, humidity, and cold.
So carbon fiber is actually a very good material, although of course, the sound can be a bit more “dry” compared to wood.
One of the biggest differences between this guitar and a traditional one is that it includes its own built in effects system, which is quite interesting. A traditional guitar usually needs an amplifier and some pedals, but this one does not. It can literally create effects like reverb and delay without needing an amp. Although it also includes a standard amplifier connection in case you want to plug it in so more people can hear you play.
Many of these functions can be better controlled through a free app, which works like a kind of remote control that lets you fine tune the guitar presets.
How long does the battery last?
To make this guitar work as a smart device, it obviously includes a rechargeable battery. This battery is very solid in terms of autonomy. Depending on usage, it can last up to 20 hours on a single charge, and around 10 hours of continuous use if effects are enabled. Considering that beginners usually play about one hour per day, this can easily last more than a week before needing a recharge.
Charging is also pretty fast. With the included USB C cable, it takes about 2.5 hours to fully charge.
What else is included?
- Padded gig bag
- Instrument cable (1/4 inch jack)
- Hex wrench for adjustments
- Cleaning cloth
