After the launch of the Nova Go Sonic, the community has been buzzing with anticipation about Enya's next electric model. Introducing Inspire, Enya Music's first super Strat model. Unlike vintage ST guitars, Inspire comes with 24 frets, giving you more room to explore the fretboard. With its SSH pickup set, ultra-ergonomic design, 2-point tremolo bridge, onboard speaker, and built-in presets, the Inspire is a true powerhouse that’s ready for any musical challenge.

SSH Pickups

The SSH pickup configuration for the Inspire, a classic must-have for super Strat guitars. Featuring ceramic magnets instead of Alnico, these pickups deliver fast attack and ultra-precise articulation for modern tones. The neck single coil offers a clean, warm sound with a punchy dynamic, while the bridge humbucker is powerful with a tailored midrange that cuts through any mix. Whether it's rock, fusion, blues, or prog, this pickup set excels in all styles. To further enhance versatility, the push-pull volume knob lets you switch the bridge pickup between series and parallel coil configurations, adding a subtle chime to the tone. This thoughtful feature opens up a range of tonal possibilities, ensuring Inspire can tackle any genre with ease.

Neck & Frets

The neck profile of Inspire is asymmetrical, providing an optimal hand feel across the entire neck. Whether holding down chords in the lower register or shredding in the higher frets, this design ensures comfort and ease of play. Additionally, the guitars feature a zero-fret design, round-end fret polishing, and ergonomic contour, all essential components for enhancing your playing experience.

Bridge

The Inspire is equipped with a 2-point tremolo bridge, offering smooth pitch bends up and down. While it’s not as aggressive as a Floyd Rose system, it’s perfect for adding a bit of expressive flair to your play. The patented spring adjustment system lets you fine-tune the tension without removing the back plate, making the process quick and easy.

FEATURES 

Onboard Speaker

One of the standout features across all Enya electric models is the onboard speaker. Upgraded from the Nova Go Sonic, the Inspire comes with a powerful 15-watt speaker that delivers bigger volume, better dynamics, and—most importantly—unmatched convenience. This onboard speaker opens up new sonic possibilities, allowing for more flexible usage. With the 15-watt speaker, you can easily amplify presets and effects for practice or small jam sessions. The wireless connectivity also lets you seamlessly integrate with your phone for audio playbacks, making practice sessions simpler than ever. At first, the convenience might seem understated, but sooner or later, you'll find yourself addicted to it. While you may not be recording or performing live every day, you’ll definitely want to pick up your guitar and play every day. The ease of grabbing and playing is at the heart of Enya's approach to the onboard speaker.

Presets & Dual Outputs 

With the Inspire guitar, you get 4 onboard presets: Clean, Overdrive, Crunch, and Lead. Switching between presets is a breeze with just one button, each accompanied by its own color indicator light (Green-Clean, Blue-Overdrive, Cyan-Crunch, Purple-Lead).

The Clean and Overdrive presets offer a vintage vibe reminiscent of small Tweed amps, while the Crunch and Lead presets lean towards a British-inspired tone. What's more, each preset is fully customizable using the ENYA MUSIC APP, allowing you to add effects like EQ, delay, reverb, and modulation.

The dual-output system allows you to have separate presets for onboard speaker and LINE-OUT situations, which allows you to fine-tune the sound for both casual and professional scenarios. But remember that you can always choose to use the guitar as a normal electric guitar with amps and pedals, bypassing the preset system.

I/O Ports

Inspire features a 6.35mm output jack for standard instrument cables, allowing you to connect the guitar to amplifiers, PA systems, and interfaces. Additionally, it includes a 3.5mm headphone output jack for silent practice sessions. The USB Type-C port serves dual purposes: charging the guitar and enabling OTG (On-The-Go) recording. With OTG recording capability, you can capture everything played on the guitar, including presets and backing tracks, for seamless recording sessions.
