The body of the Fireball tenor ukulele is made from solid mango wood, which offers a beautifully warm, rich sound in addition to a nice wood grain. The choice of neck and fingerboard materials is the tried and tested African mahogany and rosewood used in premium instruments. Good matching at the higher positions of the fingerboard is facilitated by the elegant lower body cutaway.
Tuning stability and excellent sustain are guaranteed by the anchoring of the strings through the compensated saddle and the bone zero fret in the open tuners and rosewood fingerboard. The quality of the workmanship is well illustrated by the modern headstock design, the gloss finish of the top and the decorative elements in stained maple (purfling, rosette and shoulder rest).
Sound reinforcement is provided by active electronics with a preamp installed in the instrument's soundhole.
The Slovenian brand Flight is another interesting name in the field of ukulele manufacturers. It offers a wide range of these popular compact instruments in classic and less traditional shapes and standard sizes. Beginning players and wanderers with a musician's soul will be pleased with the well-made, affordable ukulele models made of classic and exotic woods in natural and coloured finishes, or the Travel Series ukulele models with a body made of durable plastic. More demanding musicians and professional players can also choose from a selection of highly crafted semi-/full-size electroacoustic ukulele models.
