Overview
How would you like something that looks stunning, sounds great and is eco-friendly at the same time? Each of Flight's mango ukuleles has its own identity, thanks to the unique and beautiful patterns found on each one, you never know what flavor is waiting for you inside the box! It is not just the patterns but the colors too which mesmerize ranging from shades of green to red or grey. No two are ever the same which makes your chosen uke one of a kind!
While known more widely for its fruit, Mango trees also yield beautiful and valuable lumber. The wood is considered very eco-friendly, as some Mango plantations harvest the trees for lumber after they have completed their useful fruit-bearing lifespan. It has around the same density as mahogany, and if used correctly it can sound even sweeter than koa and warmer than mahogany.
The neck and fingerboard of the DUS450 are made from African okoume and Walnut. It's a great combination that guarantees a stable intonation across the fretboard, is gentle to your hands, and looks great as well.
The nut may be a small component, but one that determines the pitch of the sound. The nut and saddle of the DUS450 are made from bone (not from plastic). Just one of the details that make this ukulele truly special.
All Flight ukuleles feature a carefully-designed headstock fitted with geared tuners that will always stay in tune.
Light and stylish, yet offering excellent protection for your ukulele, Flight gigbags have already become legendary and with one hanging off your shoulder you will definitely make heads turn.
