Ok, Darrell Braun. Based largely on your review, I bought one. This is the best playing and sounding guitar I have ever owned and I have several at varying price points. It plays way above it's price point. It is so responsive and consistent. I hate to gush, but man, this guitar sounds great without the onboard effects and the effects are great! My favorite setting is about 70% chorus with about 50% room reverb with the volume at about 80%. Huge clear tones. I ordered from the Enya website on Monday and got it on Thursday, so fast shipping as well. I don't know how long the battery lasts because I charged it yesterday and I have been playing constantly for most of the day. The neck is chunkier than I expected, but it is very comfortable. My new favorite guitar.
What I really love is you can throw this one on the snow covered roof in winter and it would still be in tune and probably play perfectly! Could be a new intro to your show!
His criticisms have been addressed! The new X4 has a tuner with a nice display and better knobs. I’m looking at them now, strongly considering buying one! Seems like the perfect guitar for me.
Cool design. The front is gorgeous. Frankly, it looks to me like a squared-off Ovation (I have an Ovation T-357 "Tangent"), without the tuner, and you're right - it should have a tuner built-in. I had a Lava Me2, but it wasn't adjustable enough to intonate properly. This one looks better in that regard. I'm not a fan of gold hardware, so that's another minus, but I like onboard effects, and a USB connection to recharge the battery that powers the effects is a big plus over having to replace expensive 9V batteries periodically. I also like the elevated fretboard to allow the top to resonate more. This is definitely one to keep in mind.
Unfortunately the top is very thick, so I don't think the cantilever neck here helps a lot, but it's still cool. Wish we'd see it more guitars (because I can't afford a McPherson) I actually have an older Ovation Elite TX with a little crack in the top, and I bought a transacoustic system like this for it. But I'm not sure I'll ever install it because It'll really suck if I screw up and wreck that guitar 😁
I bought mine 15 months ago and I love it. I wanted a carbon fiber for a few years having tried some in Nashville at 3 to 4 times the price. It came in an awesome hardcase and 2 leather straps. It stays in tune no matter what. I lowered the action and put lighter gauge strings, It came with 13s, it was very bassy (too bassy) with those strings, with the lighter gauge it sounds perfect to me. Before purchasing I went through all the reviews and every UA-cam video I could find and I am very satisfied. Mine has more the carbon fiber look on top, not the honeycomb which I find looks even nicer and the back and sides has a glossy finish not matte. I added brass pins and it has a really good sustain. The markers on the knobs are hard to see, so I scratched a line on top of the knobs which gives a better indication of the levels. I forgot to mention thet the neck is not fixed to the top of the body, I think it proovides a better vibration of top. Oh well ! Thank you for your review 😊
Hey Darrell my friend let me play his rainsong and I was blown away by it.. reminded me of a 1960s d18 for touch and sound of continual effortless resonance I played in 1972.. wonder if they make a 12 string they are beautiful. God bless and keep smiling with that beautiful spirit you have
I bought one awhile back. I had a bunch of their ukuleles which are awesome. I LOVE it! So much easier to play than any of my other guitars. The sound is beautiful, the onboard effects are super fun. It's a little heavy but totally worth it. I don't play my others anymore.
I like the offset sound hole being up near where my voice is projecting! I bet singing with this is an amazing when you can feel the harmony between the guitar and myself. Similar to a piano where the sound rises up and out.
Please don t ever change.keep being honest.don t let the money to push an instrument pull you away from that true talent you have.wich is looking out for us.the guitar players You re awesome bro
If they were able to make a black and green carbon fiber guitar, it’d have an AMAZING dark, neo-cyber futuristic look that’s just RIPE for imagination!
@@darkiee69 yes! I forgot them! Thanks for adding that. Their guitars tend to be pricey, though. I think they fall between KLOS and McPherson as I recall, right?
If you want visual enhancement for your knobs positions I would get that glow-in-the-dark sight paint its made for gun sights... Just put a little drop on
Ovation guitars have. Composite boat back... again the tone depends mostly on the top and bracing... Ovation if I recall correctly offers the Adamas which combines unlike materials kind of cavalierly
OK Darrell, I watched your review and just ordered one. I wanted a guitar for my summer camp, something I could bring on the pontoon boat and not worry about the sun or humidity. This sounded like the perfect choice without breaking the bank. Thank you!
UPDATE! I have had the guitar for a couple of weeks now. I love it!. It plays great! The electronics sound great. I plugged it into a Fishman mini amp, it sounds full! And the effects are fantastic with just playing it acoustically. It is perfect for my seasonal camp.
Kind of getting toward the other end of the price spectrum but you should check out an Emerald guitar for a video . Absolutely amazing carbon fibre instruments made in Ireland
The first all carbon fiber acoustic guitar was made by The great company named Ovation..The Q-1 model was a very expensive brilliant acoustic guitar which is never produced because of it's price. It was sound great and the playability was excellent...Back in the 2001-2002 i was very lucky to play that instrument at the Frankfurt Mysicmesse..The rest are history...
Removing the snow wipe out scene from the intro is only allowed if its replaced by something better. I'm thinking- falling down a flight of stairs, snowboard wipe out, or perhaps chainsaw juggling- just sayin.. love this channel!
Great review Darrel. Walter Rodriguez reports they now have suitably marked control knobs and a built-in tuner. I would be interested to hear if after a year you have noticed any excessive fret wear as reported by another reviewer? (Will Scott), his had worn down badly after just one month.
Pretty cool Darrell! Hard to tell not in person but it sounds quite good. If my eyes were close and I didn't know it was carbon fiber, I would have believed it was made of wood. Not exactly cheap but not too expensive. Looks like the perfect gigging acoustic. Seems indestructible. Good show , Thanks!
A lot more expensive, but would love to see you review the beautiful wood-inlayed carbon fiber Virtuo electric-acoustic from Emerald Guitars in Ireland. Steve Vai toured with an Emerald.
How does the tone control effect the effects? All these guitars with actuators have so bright sounding effects. Would much rather have a warm background reverb than reverb from a room with tiles all over. Anyway, great channel.
I think you can tune the acoustic sound with strings. Warmer sounding strings for sure. Would be interresting to hear that on this channel - you have quality sound. Maybe Labella Silk & and Steel (great strings), Martin Retro or John Pearce archtop acoustic nickel strings. Thanks for the review!
I love low maintenance guitars. Lol I’ve wanted one of these but haven’t found much use for an acoustic yet, but when I do I’ll highly consider this one.
Interesting guitar. How does the natural volume compare to a typical wood guitar? I suppose the limitations aren't significantly different than any other guitar with top thickness and body shape having the greatest effect. I personally am ok with no tuner on the on-board electronics. It's onle less thing to go wrong.
I have one of these and the sound profile was the exact opposite of what I expected. I thought it was going to be tinny and wouldnt have decent bass. It was surprisingly warm and loud with a hefty bass! I
I currently own a beautiful German made acoustic guitar that I plan to keep for the rest of my life. However I live in the US north east and it's still pretty cold (I can only imagine what Canadian weather does to an all solid wood acoustic). So my guitar lives in it's case with a humidifier. It's times like this where a carbon fiber guitar propped on a stand in the corner of the room for easy access when inspiration hits would be nice. At this price point...hmmm... Tempting. Very tempting.
Check out Klos guitars, too. Pricier, but we’ll made. I own an Iris (made in VT) which I adore. Live in New England and wanted another guitar that I could take anywhere and not worry (lake, beach, etc.)
My long term worry would be the re-fret,those frets didn't look like stainless and the fretboard material might be a problem....................................................
This sounded amazing to me (clean with no effects). My cheap-ass acohostic is making me feel a bit sad right now 😂 I almost never play it though so never have been able to justify spending on something nicer. Something like this though, with the durable carbon construction, actuator and built in effects, I might be tempted to pick up enough to actually consider. Great review.
Nope. Still sounds like a HPL (High Pressure Laminated) guitar that you can pick up for much less money. HPLs are very sturdy in most weather too. I wouldn't leave a $900 "anything" in my cold or hot car but if you do that, you're lazy and shouldn't own a guitar.
@Darrell Braun Nice demo. Really cool guitar. How does the onboard effects compare to the ToneWood amp? Watch your channel a lot. Havent seen a demo on the ToneWood Amp. That would be a cool comparison. Granted it is an add on to an acoustic guitar but, it would be cool to do a Verses vid. Thanks for all your content!
guess it's kinda to late now to have you review what you thought of the neck... its finish, width and/or the fret ends and fret finish (surface)... As always, love your reviews!! Blessings!
The days of "TONEWOOD" are dead. If this was a blind test of guitars in this price range and people didn't know the material, I'd bet 90 percent would take this over wood any day. The Rainsongs sold me 20 years ago, when I played side by side with a Gibson Hummingbird (which I loved), closing my eyes and listening with no bias it was a no brainer. I'd still love to own a Hummingbird, but I bought a Rainsong.
Carbon Fiber & Polycarbonate. I have a djembe drum from Remo that's pretty much weather resistant too. My Enya guitar( Nova Go) and my drum help me create my " Anywhere, Anytime band." ;-)
It's an ugly guitar I would never play it on stage carbon fiber do not I don't like the design everybody's trying to make a weird guitar I'm old school Cat Stevens doesn't like it Jackson Browne does not like it musician 50-year I do not like it it's ugly keep it Daryl
The only complaints I have based on this video is mostly cosmetic stuff. Personally I think the "chrome" trim around the sound hole messes with the stealthy look of the carbon fibre top. And the neck - I've never been a fan of a glossy fretboard, no matter what guitar or bass it's attached to. The sound hole trim might work better with chrome hardware, but for this specific model, I'd rather have a matte (or blacked out) trim ring. Yeah the on-board tuner is a miss - they can't be THAT much extra cost to put in from the factory, but even so - a clip-on tuner quickly and easily solves that issue. But then again, what do I know - I'm just a bass player 🙃
While I'm not a fan of chrome, I like the bright look at the sound hole. They could have done something similar to the knobs to address the issue Darrell noted about being hard to see. But then, I'm just a bass player too!
Honestly the back needs to resist buckle "rash", and I love it...loved it on my Ovation guitars too. Don't have to "pamper" that if you're gigging for sure.
Thanks Darrell, I really think I want to try one of these, if for nothing else, I can keep it in any room in the house and not worry about temp change or humidity!
For fans of Carbon Fiber, it doesn't get much better than this for price/features! Enjoy :)

That built in amp works much like the tonewood amps that you can buy for acoustics that have no electronics.
Absolutely beautiful guitar dude and as usual good job and keep up the good work
@Z G yes those giveaway messages are definitely a scam asking you for money
Oh, it has a cupholder.... cool!

A more bassy sound actually sounds like a bonus to me. I'll have to keep an eye on this one.
Your "review" was great,i put alot of stock in normal real guitar players thanks.
Do you have an older model? Is the honeycomb new?
That's my next guitar, living in S.W. Florida with the heat and humidity 9 months of the year this is the perfect choice 👍.

My house is rough on guitars, will probably buy one soon, thanks Darrell !
NH here and cold AF.
I bought the same one just recently and as a drop C player, I'll never go back to wood. The low and low mid output is amazing.
I like the offset sound hole being up near where my voice is projecting! I bet singing with this is an amazing when you can feel the harmony between the guitar and myself. Similar to a piano where the sound rises up and out.
Blown away!! Awesome guitar! As a working musician, this guitar is perfect!! And great video!!!
It's like it has its own tonewood Amp. That actuator is amazing.

There's a new thing called paint. It comes in many colors.

A lot more expensive, but would love to see you review the beautiful wood-inlayed carbon fiber Virtuo electric-acoustic from Emerald Guitars in Ireland. Steve Vai toured with an Emerald.
UPS is delivering my Emerald Virtuo this week, can’t wait! I believe I live a few hours north of Darrell, hmmmmmmm
Emerald guitars are amazing especially the new electric hybrid models
Just looking on there web site they call the back and neck and top carbon fiber..is it or is it not all carbon fiber ?
Expensive is really a down side of these instruments. Another down side is... the sound. Honestly. Plastic sounds plastic.
Waoo she is a Delight sounding guitar, this is awesome! that chorus with the delay and the reverb was amazing!
Would us Canadians have to pay a extra carbon tax on that guitar?
My dad has a baand and he plays electric and acoustic electric guitar
The guitar is very bright on it’s own. With the effects, it sounds tinny.
The ejector pin mark in the sound hole tells me the back is injection molded.
Definitely curious to try one in person. Thanks for the review, Darrell!

Is it a carbon fibre guitar? Or is is a plastic guitar with a carbon fibre top? I think I will stick with my Ovations.

Yeah, it's nice but still a plastic guitar. For 1000 $ I could buy a real guitar.
Finally, a guitar you can toss onto the roof like Walter White did with the pizza from “Breaking Bad”. 😆
Enya? Is the parent company Clannad ?
My long term worry would be the re-fret,those frets didn't look like stainless and the fretboard material might be a problem....................................................
Super nice looking guitar. Nice without binding on the neck. It look so clean. It would take over the market, if it was under 500.
This sounded amazing to me (clean with no effects).

Very cold, synthetic and uninteresting sound. Played side by side with a similarly priced traditional Acoustic, which one would you prefer?
genuine Tone Carbon Fibre(™)?
I wish they made one left handed I would buy it!
The best sounding CF guitar I’ve heard but still a bit harsh for my ears. Beautiful top end sparkle but no warmth. Wood will always be my favourite.
Choice of pick makes a huge difference.
Why does a guitar need a cup holder?
Nope. Still sounds like a HPL (High Pressure Laminated) guitar that you can pick up for much less money. HPLs are very sturdy in most weather too. I wouldn't leave a $900 "anything" in my cold or hot car but if you do that, you're lazy and shouldn't own a guitar.
Wow, what a good looking guitar...stunning
Great stuff Darrel👍🎸
Thank's for your presentation!
$900 on Amazon. That doesn't seem inexpensive to me. But I'm a quarter Scottish! :)

The "Cash" model Martin is cheaper and sounds better. Plus it's a Martin! Want a $600 guitar that sounds like a$6,000 guitar buy the Martin.
Can you please do a review on Ibanez AS53-TKF Artcore? I would love to hear your opinion about thus guitar.
Wicked sound 😍😍😍
guess it's kinda to late now to have you review what you thought of the neck... its finish, width and/or the fret ends and fret finish (surface)... As always, love your reviews!! Blessings!
lava me carbon fiber guitars are far more affordable
The days of "TONEWOOD" are dead. If this was a blind test of guitars in this price range and people didn't know the material, I'd bet 90 percent would take this over wood any day. The Rainsongs sold me 20 years ago, when I played side by side with a Gibson Hummingbird (which I loved), closing my eyes and listening with no bias it was a no brainer. I'd still love to own a Hummingbird, but I bought a Rainsong.
Carbon Fiber & Polycarbonate. I have a djembe drum from Remo that's pretty much weather resistant too.
My Enya guitar( Nova Go) and my drum help me create my " Anywhere, Anytime band." ;-)
What are the neck and fretboard made from?
26 seconds in. I still miss the old intro.
Just wait till tone fibres are a thing....
Nice sound!!!
It's an ugly guitar I would never play it on stage carbon fiber do not I don't like the design everybody's trying to make a weird guitar I'm old school Cat Stevens doesn't like it Jackson Browne does not like it musician 50-year I do not like it it's ugly keep it Daryl
Dear Darell,
How does this guitar compare to the Lavas? There are Lavas in this price range and cheaper.
Give it to Pete Townshend & watch him go INSANE trying to destroy it!
...Ever wonder why they won`t make CARS out of that stuff?
I have to say, i honestly think this sounds better than the LAVA carbon fiber acoustic at almost half the price.
nice review
It's got verb?1 What about lay? Or rus? JK
The only complaints I have based on this video is mostly cosmetic stuff. Personally I think the "chrome" trim around the sound hole messes with the stealthy look of the carbon fibre top. And the neck - I've never been a fan of a glossy fretboard, no matter what guitar or bass it's attached to. The sound hole trim might work better with chrome hardware, but for this specific model, I'd rather have a matte (or blacked out) trim ring.
Yeah the on-board tuner is a miss - they can't be THAT much extra cost to put in from the factory, but even so - a clip-on tuner quickly and easily solves that issue. But then again, what do I know - I'm just a bass player 🙃
While I'm not a fan of chrome, I like the bright look at the sound hole. They could have done something similar to the knobs to address the issue Darrell noted about being hard to see. But then, I'm just a bass player too!
I'm going to miss dropping my pick into that sound hole.
Honestly the back needs to resist buckle "rash", and I love it...loved it on my Ovation guitars too. Don't have to "pamper" that if you're gigging for sure.
Great sounding guitar and not a bad price thanks for sharing Darrell
Sounds great, totally awesome
You finally reviewed something I would consider buying. Thanks.
At first it didn’t sound warm enough for me but as my ears became accustomed to it , it’s fantastic, I want one 😊😊
Thanks Darrell, I really think I want to try one of these, if for nothing else, I can keep it in any room in the house and not worry about temp change or humidity!
Nice ! So many cool features !
I love the tones. You would not have to worry about Stan Rash getting his grubby hands on the neck and body.
