Acoustic-Electric Guitar X3 Pro Mini Carbon Fiber Travel Guitar - 36" 3/4 Size with Built-in Effects & Wireless Speaker, Includes Gig Bag & Cables - Ideal for Professional & Stage Performance

This is a great guitar with a unique/characteristic and wonderful sound in pure acoustic without any effects - it’s surprising really. It’s not a wood guitar, but it will add wonderful depth and a different sound to your guitarsenal. The effects are not as “wow” as some would have you believe. It’s not a shredder. That said, it makes me write and play in a different way. In other words, it gets me out of my familiar and lazy comfort zone and into trying new things. I think guitars are a personal choice and you just find one that fits. I have a cheaper $200 guitar that I would not trade for a $3000 Martin. It is my own “Trigger.” This Enya guitar may not be a soul mate. It is, however, a very high quality technically excellent instrument; more of a predictable quality tool than something organic with a soul. That is actually a good thing, I suspect every one of these will sound very similar and very good. I recommend it. Wonderful bang for the buck.

I'll admit I was skeptical that a carbon fiber acoustic without a single piece of wood in the body would end up sounding like a sterile, plastic-like toy. Well, I wrong. The Enya X4 Pro isn't a gimmick; it's a revelation. This guitar is a complete game-changer and has quickly become my go-to instrument for everything from campfire sessions (projects like a dreadnaught in a GA body) to serious practice. The sound has a Tone so rich, you won't miss the Wood (tone wood joke). From the first strum, the X4 Pro delivers a full, resonant, and balanced sound that rivals instruments two to three times its price. The 95% purity carbon fiber top produces an incredibly rich and vibrant tone that is anything but synthetic. The bass is deep and articulate, the mids are warm and full, and the highs sparkle with a brilliant clarity. Playing an open chord feels like a massive, resonating wave of sound is being unleashed. Enya's "elevated neck" design and offset soundhole likely contribute to this impressive projection and tonal quality. In short, it sounds amazing, and you'll find yourself forgetting it's not wood or simply not caring. The Effects: Built-In Magic for Amp-Free Playing with the Acoustic Plus pickup system, the X4 Pro's "secret weapon" which truly sets it apart. Having high-quality reverb, chorus, and delay effects built directly into the guitar is an absolute luxury. The real genius, though, is that the effects work acoustically without plugging into an amp. This feature alone has completely changed how and where I practice. Adding a touch of reverb or a hint of chorus in a quiet room makes the experience more immersive and inspiring. The integrated microphone also picks up percussive elements for fingerstyle players, adding another layer to the already fantastic sound. The one caveat is the onboard speaker isn't very loud, so if you plan on gigging larger venues than a coffee house, plan on plugging into an amp for the effects to reach the crowd. Beyond the sound, the benefits of carbon fiber are undeniable. I no longer have to worry about temperature and humidity changes warping my guitar, which makes living in Michigan more bearable. The neck is comfortable, the action is perfect out of the box, and it simply stays in tune in fluctuating temps better than any wood guitar I've owned. The Enya X4 Pro is more than a guitar; it's an innovation. It delivers a superior acoustic experience with mind-blowing built-in effects, all wrapped in a durable, consistent, and beautiful package. If you're looking for a guitar that pushes the boundaries of what's possible while being portable enough to throw in the car for the weekend getaway and stay well under $800, this is the best option on the market. An absolute steal for the money.

I met a guy who had two Emerald carbon fiber acoustics and I was blown away. First by the sound and then by the price. So I started my research and came across the Enya X4 pro. I'm not a fan of the gold hardware and the offset sound hole. So I was very happy to see they make the X3 pro and I snapped one up the X3 has the same electronics as the Nova Go but is full sized and sounds better "unplugged". The front is the traditional carbon fiber weave look that we've all seen on racecar hoods and spoilers. The back and sides appear to be glass reinforced plastic. It is matte and looks very clean. I like the rounded edges around the back. It makes it more comfortable to play. Out of the box, the X3 pro is heavier than you expect an acoustic to be. I presume that's due to the actuator and battery inside the body. The electronics work well, but mine seemed quieter than I would have liked. I discovered in the app that you can adjust the output level of the signal, but when you crank it up, the guitar becomes very buzzy and maybe even a little distorted. Once you find the sweet spot though, it sounds acceptable. I have the acoustic setting (green) dialed so that it only has some compression. I want at least one of the presets to be as close to true as possible. I have plans to verify that there aren't any loose plastic parts rattling on the inside of the guitar when I make the first string change. On that note; I usually change the stock strings on every guitar I buy on day one, but these sound good, so I left them. I think I read somewhere that the x3's comes with D'Addarios on them. Out of the box, the guitar played horribly. The action was ridiculous and I spent an hour that first day adjusting the truss rod. Then a couple of tweaks the next day and it played like a different guitar. After I got the truss rod where I thought it was perfect, I trimmed the saddle down about 1mm. I don't recommend doing that if you don't have experience with it. The truss rod adjustment alone was enough, but I'm pretty picky about my setup. You should take any new guitar to a luthier for adjusting as the techs at the factory have to do so may that they don't have time (or patience) to make every one perfect. The neck is the same matte black glass reinforced plastic at the back and sides and plays smoothly without being sticky. I wonder if it's going to start to polish where I play the most like my wood guitars have. Time will tell. All in all, this guitar is really good. I didn't buy it for the effects, I bought it for it durability and price. For anyone who can't, or won't, pay the painful prices for the bigger named guitars this one will work just fine. I give it four stars because of the rattle at high output levels. You would think that the manufacturer would plan for that. However, it has a bright ringy tone that wooden guitars don't have. As such, it's a welcome addition to my collection. And it will stand up to outdoor use and travel better than the wooden guitars will. I often go from places with high humidity to low humidity with widely varied temperatures and I've always worried about my wood guitars in those situations. I don't have to worry with this one. If you're looking to tryout a CFRP guitar and you don't want to break the bank, this is probably the guitar for you. Happy picking.

I recently purchased the X4 pro from Enya. I was so impressed by this instrument that I bought a second one because I'm certain that the price will be increasing dramatically. Not only is the guitar, great acoustically, without plugging It in, it's also a great value for your money. Enya also gives you a hard case for the the guitar. I have 3 other acoustic guitars, but Enya's X4 Pro shines above the rest. Most of my guitars require constant maintenance because of the humidity. This can become expensive to purchase humidifiers for each instrument. Sinse the Enya guitar is carbon fiber, I don't have to worry about buying the expensive humidifiers. I now have 5 instruments from Enya. They are all great. I have 4 guitars and one ukulele. All of the instruments from Enya are great. The quality that Enya is giving for your money is fantastic. The instrument sounds are wonderful. The tuners work well and stay tuned for a long time. I have other guitars and ukuleles, most of them much more expensive. However, the sound quality of Enya's instruments are excellent!

This is an excellent guitar! The on board effects are great! It is very loud and has great sustain! I had to sand the bridge down and adjust the string height but other than that I cannot say enough things to make you realize how nice and special these guitars are!

Check your top IMMEDIATELY upon getting your guitar BEFORE you tune it up... there should absolutely be no waves or dents ESPECIALLY NEAR THE BRIDGE. Tune it up and check for waves... there shouldn't be ANY. To check it: hold the guitar at eye level in such a way that you can see the actual reflection of something (a sunlit window works well) you have to look across the top of the guitar. If it's not flat send it back... dents dings and distortions in CF are a BAAAAD sign there's a tremendous amount of stress in that particular area... this isn't wood and that load will not balance over time. It's also a sign of internal reinforcements not being properly bonded to the top... I'm writing this because I'm furious about the $864 to my door guitar I recieved yesterday... I absolutely LOVE the guitar, the sound, the neck, everything is PERFECT on the one I recieved... but it's more warped and wrinkled across the top near the bridge than a side street in Cleveland... it's legitimately the worst factory blem I've ever seen escape ANY factory for ANY product let alone a guitar. I work with aircraft composites and am extremely familiar with carbon fiber... First off it's dirt cheap material, but the labor and tooling is quite expensive to do it properly... their advertisement of "cost savings" for the neck and body not being woven CF is absolutely BS. Good news is, the material the neck and body are made from is EXCELLENT. It's still a carbob composite, it's just not hand laid woven CF and or what most people would refer to as "carbon fiber"... it's extremely durable stuff and was used heavily in professional RC cars in the 90s before the newer advanced polymers took over. Never in my life did I expect it to sound and play like it does... and that's why I am so mad right now. They spent all of this time and money for extremely high dollar molds for the neck and body, and then slapped a sheet of woven CF plate on top with another flat sheet of partial reinforcements internally under the bridge... you can literally see the outline of internal reinforcements and where they were and were not properly bonded through the top of my guitar. This is what causes dents in CF. Improperly bonded parts not evenly distributing the load... I am also extremely unhappy with the fact that the CF top wasn't clear coated... I can see every single weave dimple in the right light. This is absolutely unacceptable quality of finish for ANY woven carbon fiber part or component in 2023. I don't work with flat sheet carbon often, but I've never seen sheet with a finish quality this dimpled in 20 years so I don't know what's going on here. I've also never seen this particular weave so it may be some oddball prepreg not made for structural applications... and the top of a guitar is EXTREMELY structural so idk. So yes... as of OCT 31 2023 Enya is sending out guitars that you can actually play out of the box and they sound AWESOME. I've played mine for about 8 hours now exactly as it came... it actually did "settle in" quite a bit and the tone got significantly more consistent and enjoyable on day two... If you're buying a CF guitar don't expect a goofy Martin boat paddle sound... and if you're a tone jockey that will wear special acoustic grade shoes just to make your guitar sound better... these aren't for you. The tone of an instrument comes from YOU... but That being said strings do matter, and I personally would throw a set of Martin Retros on this thing. I hate phosphor-bronze normally but these actually settled in and mellowed out overnight. The mids were pretty obnoxious yesterday, but I was already mad at the guitar for being a manufacturer defect... Either way... this is NOT worth ANYWHERE near $900 even if it was absolutely perfect. Most musicians aren't familiar with current manufacturing technology... but I'll put it this way. There is NO REASON This guitar should cost more than what they sell their small travel guitar for... the materials are dirt cheap and the labor is exactly the same between the two. There is almost zero skilled labor that goes into the manufacturing process used to make these guitars unlike wooden guitars... the other CF guitars are hand made/laid as well and that's where their $3500 price actually makes sense. This guitar is literally molded exactly like any other large hard plastic part, it's the exact same material many high temp automotive components are made of (intake manifolds being the most common.) With the case I feel $400 would be an acceptable price for the full sized model... the price difference between the travel guitar, 3/4 guitar, and this full size pro 4 are just insane considering there's absolutely no difference in the manufacturing process and a very small difference in the materials cost... This isn't a competitor to a Rainsong... and personally I'm kind of bitter about it being marketed as such. This isn't a carbon fiber guitar... it's a molded carbon composite guitar. Basically: if this manufacturer can get their quality control under control and price these things REASONABLY, there is no reason every single guitarist shouldn't have one... I absolutely expect to see more of this molded composite technology in musical instruments and I'm actually now excited about it. Thing this absolutely thunders down low... it's almost got a grand piano type of resonance. Sound is thicc... It's not just loud, but a very "large" sound that I've never heard another guitar make and this is all without any electronics. Haven't played another composite guitar other than an ovation. the battery is an 18650 and it's on the back of the pre amp on the inside... difficult to reach but mine just needed to be popped in. If you press the button and nothing happens... the battery needs to be popped in on one side. They likely shipped this way to keep the battery from draining during storage. ... not a bad a idea to pop it out for long term storage. You'll also have to remove the battery for airplane travel... the FAA don't play around with lithium batteries and they do prosecute if they catch you with one in your luggage So the battery is absolutely replaceable and VERY common... they really should have put an access panel or battery box like every other guitar with a battery. Good news is for gigs you could absolutely keep a spare on hand and awkwardly swap it if you had to... Summary: if you want to keep charging $900 delivered you actually are going to have to build a guitar that LOOKS like a $900 guitar. The feel and sound are there... and the case is actually pretty cool. The electronics are a big meh... but once I actually spent a few hours figuring out what the knobs actually did (they're "labeled" sort of) I was able to finally enjoy the effects... took a lot of time tinkering and playing "nothing else matters" 😆 Haven't plugged it in to anything yet because I've already told myself this thing is going back... but I've got a strong feeling it's going to sound extremely good through my normal recording gear which is why I bought it. Grand finale/final section i promise: I'll likely give them another year to figure it out and buy another in late 2024... I'm not a second chance kind of guy with instruments, but the fact Enya is actually actively working to improve these guitars and has excellent customer service from what I can gather, I can't help myself. I've got a local Enya dealer and I may just go buy one from them... I've got a feeling I personally got a dud (which should NEVER have left the factory). Had I bought this as known defect/blem model... I'd be over the moon right now and this would be a 5 star glowing review... I've bought MANY factory defect guitars over the years, but I also didn't pay full price. That's the issue here... it's an awesome guitar, but not $900 awesome. Yes, I could easily fix the issues with my guitar and make it look like what I expected... but I wasn't looking for a project, I was looking for a guitar.

I purchased this as a "beach guitar" so that I'd have something to bring without care to an extremely high humidity environment and even out on a boat. After playing it for a bit however I'm thinking I will play this thing at home a whole lot more than I expected. So much fun! First, it needed a setup which I was able to do myself. The action at the 12th fret was quite high at around 1.4mm and there was really no neck relief at the fifth fret as the string was touching the 5th fret when fretted at 1 and 12. I sanded the saddle a bit to lower the 12th fret action to .09mm and then loosened the truss rod just enough to give about .01mm or a business card thickness of clearance at the 5th. It plays great now! In the absence of any instructions it took some noodling around for a few minutes to figure out the effects button. Let me just say however that is what not evident due to the lack of instructions is that there is a companion Enya Music app you can download to your phone which really opens up a whole new world for the effects. The four colors can each be completely customized to add as much or as little reverb, chorus, delay and wah in combinations as you want. You can also adjust the volume of the effects both from the guitar and from the 1/4" output along with adjusting their EQ and compression. It ended up sounding so much better than when it came out of the box. Since I have no use for the Wah effect, I completely replaced the purple setting with a custom blend of reverb and delay which came out really nice. I only found out about the app through a YouTube about the guitar I happened across. THE APP IS A TOTAL GAME CHANGER! I also am a fan of Elixir strings so while doing the setup I replaced the stock D'Addario XS set with an Elixir Phospor Bronze HD Light set. Just a better sound to my ear with a touch more low end to go with the high end shimmer. Your results may vary. It's a keeper! Just to update, there is one more thing that was not evident due to the lack of any instructions. You can use the onboard speaker as a Bluetooth speaker from your phone. This allows you to play backing tracks, drum loops, mp3s, YouTube videos etc through the guitar itself to play along with. It does not happen when you pair the guitar through the app however. It is an additional step. Once the guitar is on, tap the knob twice quickly and it will blink once. The guitar is now in pairing mode and will show up as a device that can be paired with on your phone as a Bluetooth speaker (SP1S-G_Audio). It only has to be done once. This has become my favorite feature on the guitar. The playback sounds best without effects so I use it on the green channel which is just the guitar without any additional effects added.

Purchased about 2 weeks ago. Guitar arrived dead. None of the electronics worked. Tried charging but a light didn't even come on to indicate it was charging. I checked in the sound hole to see if the battery was at least in correctly and it was, I looked online to see if there was something else I was missing or needed to do but I couldn't find anything. The guitar was packaged nicely and in it's case. There was no clear protective wrapping on the body like some other reviewers have indicated. I wonder if I just got a returned defective guitar they were hoping somone else wasnt going to complain about. I got frustrated and asked for a return because I was a little put off about the whole thing, but I have since ordered another one. I will update my review once I get the new one. Hopefully this time it works. UPDATE: received the second one, or should I say the same one a second time. Same dent in the box. Same way I put the extra stuff back in the box. I don't understand how when you send something back as defective that whoever responsible just sends it out again, I'm amazed it was sent to me for the second time. I really want one that works, but what am I supposed to do at this point? Going to contact amazon later and see what I can do. UPDATE: The company reached out to me... thier idea of help was offering a different model than the X4 Pro... They offered me a discount if i were to order it on amazon again, which i never received, but they couldn't guarantee me that i would get a brand new working X4 Pro, so i simply haven't reordered for a 3rd time. Seems crazy in this day and age for this to happen, but if you live in the south florida area, and order that guitar, they may just send you the same non functional one. Good luck. I will put my money towards the Taylor i wanted.
