Flight TUS-55 Soprano Travel Ukulele. Amara (with Gig Bag)
Flight Travel Ukuleles have proven to be one of the best and most robust ukuleles that you can purchase, and Flight continues to expand the number of choices that are available in the series. The Flight TUS55 Amara Soprano Ukulele features a laminate amara top which will respond to any playing style and add a traditional “look” while doing so. Amara is an ebony full of darkness and exciting grains, and has a deep, mysterious sound with good volume. This uke will help you discover the layers of your talent. It may be your first ukulele, but the enjoyment you will take from the instrument will ensure that it isn’t your last. If it your first ukulele, you’ll never forget it, and you won’t have to–as a travel ukulele, it is rugged enough to last a lifetime.
Sounds exotic – it IS exotic
We generally offer our travel series ukuleles with cool colors or stunning graphic designs–but the Flight TUS55 Amara Soprano Travel Ukulele offers a nod to classical ukulele design through the use of laminate amara. Some call this wood ebony, but we call it amara. It is a wood the is full of darkness and exciting wood grain. It has a deep, full, mysterious tone.
ABS Neck & Fingerboard
The neck and fingerboard of this ukulele are made from ABS plastic. This is a perfect solution for entry class ukuleles, since it is not prone to any weather changes. You will never experience a sharp fret or bent neck on our Travel ukuleles. The neck features a wooden texture, which helps the instrument to feel unlike a plastic ukulele as you play it.
Zero fret & ABS Saddle
Our travel ukuleles use a zero fret and adjustable saddle, which keeps the string action low and intonation on point. Since a plastic will not react to weather conditions like a wood ukulele, you will should never have to deal with any future saddle adjustments.
Black strap button
The Flight Travel Ukuleles have a rounded back, which can make them more difficult to hold for some players. We added a single strap button to the travel series to make them easier to hold. We offer a selection of Flight Ukulele Straps which would make a great accessory for your ukulele!
Good-looking and easy to tune.
Headstock design is an integral part of our identity. The headstock veneer is made of laminate mango and matches the sound board of the ukulele. All Flight ukuleles feature a carefully-designed headstock fitted with geared tuners that will always hold their tuning (once tuned).
Always ready to go
Every Flight ukulele includes a gig bag. While the Travel Series does not need a lot of protection, a gig bag protects the strings and makes the ukulele easier to carry. We chose a blue denim color to add some style and also to make the bag stand out from the standard black gig bag that everyone else seems to favor.
