Wish this was out 6 months ago when I bought the previous Nova Go SP. My purpose for the purchase was to own a trunk guitar that can survive the Florida, USA, heat and humidity and be ever present to grab and play on the road. I believe that is the highest and best use for these. The fact that it happens to sound pretty good is a major bonus. I giggle when people crack on these for being toy-like. Because that is what they are, really functional toys that grown ups can take with them anywhere and PLAY.
Shame it didn’t come a little earlier for you. That kind of thing has happened to the best of us. I love that you have real world use for this guitar and are putting the design composite/resilience to the test. Does the SP have a speaker too? This is my first time working with the brand so I guess I need to rewind to learn a bit more.
In exactly the same boat bud.. got my sp1 just a couple of days ago. Then came not only this, but also harley bentons travel mate. Wich is literally a rebadged sp1 for £100 less😕
I live in mid Florida, I just found out about this, and ordered it. Perfect timing for me. Toy??? If this stays in tune like everyone says, then I would play it live without hesitation. If they laugh, then they're talking about me. And while everyone else is constantly re-tuning, I can go to the next song.🤩 What I have heard from this guitar, I like the tone amped up. I have a half-stack boogie begging for this.
Not sure what people expect for $300. Got mine yesterday. Love that I have a guitar that I can toss in the car on a hot California day (or freezing cold day when visiting back east) and not worry if it’s gonna get destroyed by the temps. Thin enough in its gig bag to toss overhead in a plane if taking a family trip where I want to still practice while traveling. Agree with those who don’t think it’s an alternative to a “first” guitar. Or one you should perform with. But having a guitar and speaker on the couch, backyard or beach etc. at this price seems reasonable. I’ll enjoy playing it a bit more once I swap out the strings. Not the greatest. But small (extra) price to pay.
Yeah exactly, I agree. Regardless of all the smart features you still get a really decent guitar for the money. Throw in the built-in speaker and all the other features/tech magic and it’s a bit of a bargain. I am a hybrid 9/10 player myself, so I would’ve probably enjoyed it more if I’d’ have swapped them out, but the strings that came with were fine.
Exactly. It’s meant to be played with the onboard speaker. My goto couch guitar and put it in the RV when I head to Arizona for the winter and northern Minnesota camping in the summer. Two totally different climates.

@@SpedSpedding Thanks Sped! Not so sure about the "monumental" bit (I know you never heard my name until now), but I had a sh*t ton of fun, at various times toured the US and Canada, got to see the up AND downside of hanging with the big dogs, and made at least a little bit more than I spent on it. So all in all I'm calling it a win. This was a lot thru the 70's, early 80's - I have to wonder if the young up-and-comers will ever have the chances I had. Hope so.
I love that, thank you for watching and commenting. People have mentioned that they've been review by a lot of people so that makes it even sweeter. If you get one I hope you like it!
The SMART guitar is definitely what every bedroom guitarists next-door neighbour will fall in love with. especially in the semi-detached homes so common in the UK! I'd been on much better terms with my neighbours on the other side of the brick wall if I'd had one of these in the 70's. Come to think of it, I'd also have been on better terms with my parents in the room downstairs 🤪 Excelent use of modern digital electronics and materials to produce an affordable instrument that can do so much. The only fault (unless it's a feature The Great Sped missed) would be the ability to bluetooth a backing track into it from your phone.
Great demonstration Sped. It’s just Amazing what’s on offer nowerdays Was really surprised by the quality of sound from the speaker particularly in the clean tone mode 👌👌👌 Absolutely incredible a composite guitar and onboard guitar processing for just £300 😳WOW And No I have never seen a zero fret before 😳 Loved all your playing too. Could listen to you all day ( how ever does Gabs get any work done HAHAHA ) Hope you are both having a great Easter 👍👍👍👍😎
Yeah the zero fret isn’t that common; and the Carbon Fiber composite is actually really cool. I’m a fan of it felt sleek. Gab gets work done because I have to close ALL the doors.
@@musabnorhamidi3262It doesn’t feel like a toy at all. Feels like a decent solid guitar. The only “toy” elements to it (and I’m putting that in quotations because that’s what people keep saying) would be the back plate enclosing the electronics and speaker and maybe the button and the speaker? But they’re also two of the best most unique features here.
It’s a bit of both isn’t it. The future for some and others not so much. This is the first guitar with “tech” that has a real use for me given all the gear I have. Those tones on the go with the press of a button, without headphones.
Thanks a lot Sped. You have me jonesing to purchase another guitar. I mean I haven't purchased one since December. I will say I've never purchased a guitar through Amazon, that would be a first.
That opening loop riff sounds like old school Santana playing along to Sabbath somehow. Interesting instrument. Too bad I am already at my gear budget.
I guess these little loops I keep doing are gonna showcase all my influences at some point. Mash up. 😂 No prob. If it ever changes, you know what to do.
I'm not into gimmicky stuff (ever) and this has been done before. HOWEVER, I feel this is the first time the plan panned out and resulted in a guitar that is not a waste of money. Very interesting for sure. I could see the value of this for schools and students. I'd even use one to noodle on in the studio etc. Too bad I'm a lefty!
Interesting!!.. to be honest I was surprised at the price, thought it would cost more.. great idea if you can just pick it up and play, that’s what it’s all about.. nice review 👌
I want the white one and all they have now is black... I have too many black guitars... On the other hand, I have a wart... seriously... I would like to hear you breakdown some of Lindsay Buckingham, his stuff seems really technical and I can't wrap my head around it... when you explain it I get it instantly... you are a great teacher. The "teaching your girfriend to play" is awesome... great stuff all round... thanks mate.
I didn’t answer within a few hours because I was out and now unfortunately unwell. I tried to play Spotify through the speaker when connected to Bluetooth. No joy. I imagine this is all possible through USB though.
Dude you're awesome great TRUE HONEST DEMO UNLIKE A LOT OF THE PEOPLE ON RUclips Thank you as a Gigging musician chic I really appreciate it and holy hell that sustain!!!!!
Is this guitar good enough quality to use for studio recording just plugging directly into pedalboard and amp modeler? I’d bypass onboard effects and use my pedalboard.
I got one a few days ago. I don’t know why these are demo’d here plugged into an amp. These guitars are meant to play through the onboard speaker and use the iPhone app as well. It’s a Nova GO NOT a Nova NO……….
I demonstrated both in the review Jason, it was a full product demo? It can be used as a normal guitar or with the smart features. Literally how it’s advertised.
Action was perfect for me. I like a higher action than most. But as you can see from the video there is a heal mounted truss rod adjustment wheel and the bridge can be screwed up and down on each side.
For the money its a cracking bit of kit But...... How long will it function without developing a fault? Im a little dubious of the smart tech being reliable.

Strictly for scientific purposes, I went ahead and downed 2 pints and had a go, here is what I had for frets - “twenty two me hi cow cops showing nipples in the alley” So how easy is it to get used to that hybrid neck shape? I love the concept, I looked one up here in the states and its right at $400 U.S. which isn’t bad at all. I think it’s a particularly great idea for beginners not needing to spend money on a guitar and amp, not to mention they can just grab it and play, no plugging it in to a amp or moving gear around as they get kicked out of every room in the house for practicing on 11!
Hahaha, love that. And yes, exactly this! 👏🏻 So many are quick to shoot things down but it’s so easy to use. I handed it to Gab in her office and said “press that button” she had a clean sound and then overdrive with another press. Can take it outside, maybe go camping etc. After all it will survive the elements being carbon fiber. 💪🏻
I wonder if repair is possible? I'm new to the guitar world so Idk much. Would your avagre electric guitar repair shop accept it? Or look at you like you are crazy 😭
In terms of set up and electronics I imagine any guitar tech could look at it no problem. The under the hood tech stuff is where it’d get difficult. But there’s electronics specialists out there and I’m sure Enya would be willing to help if needed.
Gary would have owned one … any good technology that keeps us playing, and inspired is ok in my book! Thanks Sped! … purists will bitch, from the depths of mom’s basement!
Haha! I understand, I used to have the same kinda reaction to tech and guitars but when they play and sound great plus have something innovative like a built in amp it’s hard to ignore. They’re cool.
I can’t change your mind on how you think it looks but as you’ll see from the review: it’s not a toy, it’s carbon fiber and it actually sounds and plays really well plus it has a load of unique features and is portable with a built in amp. For the price I think that’s pretty cool. 2024 doesn’t disappoint.
@@SpedSpedding Oh I wasn't dissing the general output or features, it sounds good from this video at least. But when you turned it around and I saw the back... I couldn't get over that. I suppose mileage will vary there.
@@FRESHNESSSSSS Yes the cover on the back does have that look to it. I guess it’s so accessibility is easy in case of battery replacement or repairs. I reckon it’ll change next gen. It’s good to leave your comments and opinions though as the best companies read them and act on them.

My thoughts exactly Mike! Glad you liked that video and yeah, it’s not a lot for what you get. The guitar alone sounds and plays great too as you saw.
I miss a built in looper to quickly practice....it does not have one, right?
Sounds great so what you're saying is I can use this guitar as a weapon and then reuse it again asA instrument

My guitar string is vibrate when using distorsion and high gain effect. Did it happen to you too?
Just got the sp1 electro acoustic version.. as much as i like it, i wouldn't have bothered if i knew this was coming..
That’s happened to the best of us. Would you consider trading it in? Might be able to “upgrade” and still not take a huge loss on the sp.
Does it also have a Camera on it ?? I think you can store your recipes on it too.
Crazy art/paint jobs we had in the 80's would be cool too, like George Lynch guitars
I’d actually love to see that. Might ask my brother to wrap it for me. 😏😏😏
Hello, can we use the speaker as a Bluetooth speaker to jam with backing track ?
Why you don’t answer ? 😢
I didn’t answer within a few hours because I was out and now unfortunately unwell. I tried to play Spotify through the speaker when connected to Bluetooth. No joy. I imagine this is all possible through USB though.
Sped I have a question
If you had to buy a Les Paul from Epiphone for Led Zeppelin type projects which would you buy
sounds better than my charvel lol. this is for everyone. from beginners to those who just need something to practice on.
How much is the replacement battery that will last about 1 yr? $350.00?
Truss rod in a carbon fiber neck? What is the fingerboard made out of?
The fingerboard is also acoustic carbon fiber composite.
So were any tweaks necessary out of the box? Action? Intonation? String change?
I made no changes at all. Comes with D’addario. Feels like 10s.
Play it with just the built-in speaker! That's how to demo it

@@SpedSpedding ... thank you! Awesome!
Great video, Sir! How would you go about getting a "woman tone" since it lacks a tone knob? Thank you!

Is this guitar good enough quality to use for studio recording just plugging directly into pedalboard and amp modeler? I’d bypass onboard effects and use my pedalboard.

I demonstrated both in the review Jason, it was a full product demo?
It can be used as a normal guitar or with the smart features. Literally how it’s advertised.
It would be more useful if it had a tone knob and a kill swtich. Stainless steel or aluminum model with floyd trem (that would be really futuristic)
I’ll pass on the feedback. I don’t have a Floyd on anything anymore so yeah, that would have been extra cosmic.
How’s the action. I hear it’s high and can’t be adjusted.
Action was perfect for me. I like a higher action than most. But as you can see from the video there is a heal mounted truss rod adjustment wheel and the bridge can be screwed up and down on each side.
Well now I just want an all white Les Paul. Dammit Sped!
The SpedXJonny gear list continues to grow. 😂😂😂👏🏻
Interesting. What's the fretboard, again? I'd see myself playing one of these things before a LavaLamp 4. They're hideous, imo.

Not the sound you want? You could call it a Robert Fripp sound or a Slash sound if that makes you happier?
never mind i just got stoned!
Gary would have owned one … any good technology that keeps us playing, and inspired is ok in my book! Thanks Sped! … purists will bitch, from the depths of mom’s basement!
😂😂😂 love that. I mean any guitar that has infinite sustain would prick up Gary’s ear for sure. Everyone needs a 40 minute live version of Parisienne.
… “an old bottle of Beaujolais” … is an old bottle of Beaujolais even possible?!?

Don’t bloody need to. #CarbonFiberMate
I’m trying to not like this thing but you are making it kinda difficult
Haha! I understand, I used to have the same kinda reaction to tech and guitars but when they play and sound great plus have something innovative like a built in amp it’s hard to ignore. They’re cool.
That looks like a very silly, plastic, toy guitar.
I can’t change your mind on how you think it looks but as you’ll see from the review: it’s not a toy, it’s carbon fiber and it actually sounds and plays really well plus it has a load of unique features and is portable with a built in amp. For the price I think that’s pretty cool. 2024 doesn’t disappoint.
@@SpedSpedding Oh I wasn't dissing the general output or features, it sounds good from this video at least. But when you turned it around and I saw the back... I couldn't get over that. I suppose mileage will vary there.
@@FRESHNESSSSSS Yes the cover on the back does have that look to it. I guess it’s so accessibility is easy in case of battery replacement or repairs. I reckon it’ll change next gen. It’s good to leave your comments and opinions though as the best companies read them and act on them.
It's the limited generic colors they have
@@bickleyjonas6145I think a lot of companies think “modern guitar” so let’s go space age. I’d love to see this on a burst flame top, classic design.
Hard pass
Too expensive for ya?
@@michaelvarney. No, I'm just not gay. I'm sure your dad would love one though.
@@samizdat113 you protest too much… projection?
