"Blackbird": a dark finish within the Natural series
The Flight NUS310BB "Blackbird" brings a decidedly different touch to the Natural series: where one often expects clear, traditional wood finishes, this model embraces an entirely black aesthetic, enhanced with deliberately raw Celtic-inspired engravings. The result: a ukulele that retains the accessible and practical spirit of the range while adding a strong visual identity, perfect for standing out from the first chords.
A soprano ukulele designed for beginners... and to stay in your collection
Thanks to its soprano size, the NUS310BB is quickly manageable: it naturally rests against the body, is easy to carry, and invites playing anywhere. It is an excellent choice for a beginner who wants a simple, reliable, and in-tune instrument, but also a great option for an intermediate player seeking a soprano with a marked character. In terms of styles, it performs perfectly in pop, folk, variety accompaniment, both in rhythmic strumming and arpeggios, and suits "voice-centered" songs where the ukulele must remain musical without overpowering the spectrum.
A warm and easy-to-master tone
The top, back, and sides made of African sapele give the NUS310BB a warm tonal color, with present mids and a soft attack, often appreciated for accompaniment. On a soprano size, this wood helps maintain a full and coherent sound despite the small body: you get a clear projection, controlled sustain, and excellent clarity of open chords.
The walnut bridge contributes to vibration transmission and promotes precise response, while the walnut fingerboard provides a pleasant playing feel, with a natural contact under the fingers. Overall, it emphasizes what is expected from a good entry-level ukulele: reliable intonation, an instrument that stays in tune across the entire neck, and a sufficiently expressive sound personality to inspire progress.
