Engineered With Purpose
Onboard DSP, Not a Pedal Substitute
The Enya E-SP1 chip sits inside the guitar body and drives all four presets on its own — Clean, Overdrive, Distortion, and High-Gain Lead — so you get a real amp tone the moment you plug in, with or without your phone nearby.
One-Piece Carbon Fiber Body
An integrated die-cast, one-piece carbon fiber composite body keeps the AU01 at roughly 3.3kg while resisting the warping and cracking that humidity and heat cause in traditional wood-bodied electrics.
5-Way HSS Pickup Switching
A custom ceramic humbucker at the bridge and ceramic single coils at neck and middle, run through a 5-way blade switch, cover everything from glassy cleans to high-output lead tones.
The Enya App Ecosystem
Connect over Bluetooth to the Enya Music app to fine-tune all four presets, use the built-in tuner and metronome, play along to backing tracks, and record straight from the guitar via USB-C OTG.
