Soprano

Flight TUS-55 Amara

Acoustic Ukulele / HN221929

Description of product

Flight's Travel Series offers affordable ukulele models made largely of ABS plastic, so they'll survive your mood swings and the vagaries of the weather unscathed.

The body of this soprano ukulele is composed of a plastic body and a laminated ebony soundboard with a nice wood grain, called amara by the manufacturer (amara ebony is essentially the same as makassar ebony). The ukulele's wider arched backplate allows the instrument to resonate with a clearer, louder sound than standard soprano models offer. The neck and fingerboard are also made of ABS plastic material, with the neck design mimicking the texture of wood. The strings are anchored via plastic zero and saddle frets in guitar-style tuning machines (Geared) and a plastic headstock. The beautiful workmanship is emphasized by the headstock design decorated with amara ebony veneer.

The ukulele is supplied in a blue denim case with an instructional booklet.

The Slovenian brand Flight is another interesting name in the field of ukulele manufacturers. They offer a wide range of these popular compact instruments in both classic and less traditional shapes and standard sizes. Beginning players and vagabonds with a musician's soul will be delighted by the well-crafted, more affordable ukulele models made from classic and exotic woods in natural and coloured finishes, or the Travel Series ukulele models with a durable plastic body. More demanding musicians and professional players can also choose from a selection of highly crafted semi-/full-size electroacoustic ukulele models.
