Description Flight NUS380 Topaz Soprano Ukulele Let Your Music Take Golden Red Turns Deep Blue. Sapele Wood The Flight NUS380 Topaz is made from laminate sapele. Sapele is a light hardwood from tropical Africa with a golden to dark reddish brown color. We then added a beautiful finish to produce a different and striking look. A close relative of mahogany, its grain is interlocked and has a uniform texture with a good natural luster. Its natural resonance is boosted and concentrated by the arched back of this ukulele, which yields a clear and bright tone. The rosettes in all our ukuleles are drawn by hand and engraved by laser-etching. Let's play. Okoume Neck & Walnut Fingerboard The neck and fingerboard 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. Fasten Your Seatbelt Strap Button Of course, it is good to learn how to play the ukulele without using a strap, but why not use a strap if you can have it both ways? Strap makes holding the ukulele easier so you can keep playing for hours. It also allows you to be ‘hands free’ between songs. We at Flight care about the comfort of our Flighters, which is why we started adding strap buttons to all Flight ukes! Pitch perfect quality. Bone Nut & Walnut Bridge The nut may seem to be a small component, but it plays a critical role in the overall sound of an instrument. The nut and saddle of this ukulele are made from bone (not from plastic), which results in better tone quality. It all starts with the head. Good-looking and easy to tune. Headstock design is an integral part of our identity. All Flight ukuleles feature a carefully-designed headstock fitted with geared tuners that will always stay in tune. Light and Stylish Gig Bag Excellent Protection for Your Uke Light and stylish, yet offering excellent protection for your ukulele, Flight gig bags have already become legendary and with one hanging off your shoulder you will definitely make heads turn. Instructional booklet Learn in style. We have also designed a cute 8-page guide to help you on the road to future ukulele fame.
