I'm not sure I'd want to put the time into installing a permanent pickup system into the Enya Nova Go as acoustically it's a rather uninspirational guitar to play. The strange thing, however, is that amplification may put a whole new spin on its tone. I remember my 2016 Taylor GS-Mini-e Koa as sounding decent when unplugged but when its full-size, real ES2 was plugged in, it ROARED! I could get an idea of how the Enya Nova Go might sound amplified with a permanent pickup installation by placing my Schatten LP-15 Outsider on the Enya's top using a thin putty mounting, and in various locations around its bridge, to hear what happens.

Yeah, like I said the endpin is screwed in to... something... at the tail of the guitar. I mean, it's got to be solid enough to support things when you are playing with a strap, but that isn't a lot of weight as light as the guitar is. Not sure I'd want to be the first one to find out--in a bad way--what that "something" is.
Maybe this would be a job for one of those suction cup pickups they make. |

one of these would work....
https://www.knapickups.com/en/guitar/uke/sg-1-kna/ ...or a cheap lavalier mounted in the soundhole on the shoulder. Or a thin jazz type pickup. What's the clearance at the base of the neck ?

Go to Amazon and look at the reviews for this item; Enya Nova Go Guitar.
On May 15, 2022 a reviewer named MrGizmo posted a review and pictures of his pickup install and side preamp/eq, and a combo 1/4" and XLR output jack/battery compartment on the bottom of his Enya Nova Go. Looks like a professional/factory installation. Last edited by maxed; 10-28-2022 at 06:16 AM. Reason: typo |

He also bought the pickup/preamp rig on Amazon for $30 Cdn. It appears to be just screwed in to the carbon sides. I wonder how durable that set up will be.

You may be correct about the side-mounted eq panel, but the bottom 1/4 and XLR outputs plus the 9-volt (or dual triple-AAAs ?) battery compartment would likely need a hole cutout (cavity) large enough to accomadate those electronic components. Just observations with similar equipped guitars I own.

Just noticed this KNA SG-1 removeable piezo pickup online: https://www.knapickups.com/en/guitar/uke/sg-1-kna/
A good price. And, I think it could really do the trick on the little Nova Go without all the folderol of a pickup/preamp installation.

I just noticed on Amazon (U.S.) that they now list the Enya Nova Go Guitar with pickup (acoustic-electric) in-stock and for sale. Although not all the colors are available.

Unfortunately I don't get to see a price tag either. For how much are these selling?
