- The Enya is becoming my favorite ukulele, but how does it compare to a traditional wooden ukulele? Here is a quick little comparison between the Enya Nova U and the Kala KA-T.
Let me know your thoughts!

Kala is seriously being left behind by Enya and the other low cost uke makers like Aklot, Kmise, Donner .... I subbed you for the great idea of this video. Good job! Rich
It's crazy how good the cheaper uke's are getting! Thanks for the sub! Have a great day
So enya vs aklot vs kmise and donner?which one u pick?
@@setiwetnge2661 Enya Nova U concert is a great uke. Aklot mahogany and Kmise tiger flame are great ukes. Kmise solid spruce top with guitar style headstock is great. I love my Donner solid spruce top soprano. At the moment the ukulele I like most and play most is Kmise tiger flame concert. 😊
@@richdavis4007 k, you seem like the guy to ask......what's a good concert uke under $70???
Please and thank you
The Enya is a concert and the Kala is a tenor. An ideal comparisons would be the Enya Nova vs a Kala concert.
That way, the tone comparison will be fair.
The tenors definitely have slightly more warmth in their tone compared to any concert.
You are correct. Do keep in mind that the Enya is actually right in the middle of a concert and a tenor..so either comparison would never be a true representation as they all have different scale lengths
Thanks, I think I need it just for the beach in the rain :)
Thanks! That was helpful and honest
Hi Zach thanks for the review ! Would it make sense to buy the nova if I’m left handed ? If I flip to the left ... would the sound exit be muted while I play
Interesting question. i just pulled the Enya out and tried playing it left handed and it doesn't lose much volume, the sound just comes out from the bottom very noticeably. If you think you'd be alright with that, I would think it is fine for you
Zack Ramsey thanks 😊
Very informative. Jst one question..is Enya sufficiently loud enough?
I guess it depends on what loud enough means for you, but for me it is loud enough. It's not like you would struggle to hear it while playing
Hi man, thanks for this review. I'm a beginner and just bought an Enya EUC-MS in Amazon and will receive it next week, do you think it is a good model? I like its sound more than others' for the same price
That's an amazing instrument! Crazy how it's a solid wood instrument for the price most charge for a laminate
@@ZackRamsey14 Thanks man! Had heard that Kala's models were better, but for me the sound of that Enya was clearer and seems to have a great quality, so got the EUC-MS. Will see your videos to learn how to play it! ;)
@@joselago7720 The enya you purchased will be better than either of these models, there is no doubt about that. Thanks for reminding me I need to make some more videos on how to play the ukulele!
@@ZackRamsey14 Thanks to you man! Great work in your channel btw ;)
@@joselago7720 I also wanna buy an ukulele so according to u I should buy enya Or kala?
Hey, I'm a guitarist and I'm going to purchase a ukulele and try to see if I can expand my playing ability in the string world of instruments, do you reccomend a wood uke or something like the Enya?
It’s odd, I prefer the enya but if I could only have one, I’d stick with a wood ukulele. It’s just a little louder and fuller sounding. But I prefer the feel of the enya nova. So if feel and playability are important to you, that’s something to consider. Many wood ukuleles I see these days come stock with high nuts and sharp frets. I would not recommend something “like the enya” though. The waterman and every other travel/plastic uke I’ve played are toys. The enya is another level. I’d go enya Nova all day, or even one of enyas wood ukes. Hope that helps!
sorry to be so offtopic but does anyone know of a tool to log back into an Instagram account??

@Ayden Calvin instablaster :)
@Clyde Luca Thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site through google and im in the hacking process atm.
Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will reply here later with my results.
what is the song you played in this video?
So if I have like $150 which ukelele do I buy?
The Enya and save yourself $60. I prefer the Enya for many, many reasons. Like I say in the video, only reason to get the Kala or a comparable wood uke is for the more traditional tone and projection.
If you have $150 buy an Enya Nova U and any Aklot mahogany solid top: Get two super ukes and all the accessories you need and have money left over! Rich Davis
@Mr Susan Channel Buy Aklot concert or tenor mahogany ukulele on eBay. In the US the tenor is $61 with free shipping. Rich
Both
Any issues with smudging or staining?
Nothing yet
How do you clean your ukelele to make it white again? Because mine become dirty white, u know, the yellowish thing. Hope for your answer, thank u.
Paint it black. Or any other color you like.
Also: don't buy a white instrument, if you are not able to keep it clean.
Does the white colour get dirty easily?
Due to it being a satin/matte finish, it does not. But obviously serious marks or dings would show.
@@ZackRamsey14 And the case?
@@idkillforcill Case hasn't gotten dirty on me yet
The Enya sounds nicer.
