Flight Flight: TUS35 ABS Travel Ukulele - White -

A "Travel Series" Designed for Mobility: Flight's Nomadic Spirit

With the Travel Series, Flight offers a different approach to the ukulele: an instrument made to keep up with your pace, capable of withstanding journeys, changes of environment, and daily use without hassle. The TUS35 fits this logic with a construction mainly in ABS, combined with a wooden top to maintain a more natural musicality. Within the range, this model stands out with its premium features (zero fret, open geared tuners, arched back, side dots) that immediately enhance comfort and precision, while remaining accessible and reassuring for beginners.

Who Is the TUS35 For? A Simple, Reliable, and Different Ukulele

The Flight TUS35 is an excellent choice for beginners: it is easy to handle, its soprano format naturally positions the left hand "in the right place," and its robust design limits worries related to everyday minor impacts. It will also appeal to musicians looking for a travel ukulele: at home, on the road, in rehearsals, camping, or simply as an instrument kept within easy reach. Finally, if you like instruments with a modern look and innovative materials, this model offers a unique personality without leaving the ukulele's sonic universe.

In terms of styles, it is comfortable in pop, folk, vocal accompaniment, "island" rhythms, and chordal playing. Its quick response and direct character suit finger attacks, steady strumming, and light percussive rhythms very well.

Projected and Responsive Sound Thanks to the "Wood Top + Arched Back" Duo

The TUS35's sonic signature comes from its balance between a basswood top (plywood) and an ABS structure. The top, even in plywood, adds clarity and a more organic character to the attack, while the ABS favors consistency and durability. The arched back plays an important role: by stiffening the body and better directing vibrations, it helps the instrument project and gain presence, which is particularly appreciated in a soprano format.

The choice of an ABS bridge and an ABS fingerboard contributes to this feeling of clear and immediate response. The result: a ukulele that speaks easily, with a crisp attack, good chord clarity, and sustain suited for accompaniment. The position markers (frets 5, 7, 10, and 12) also enhance playing comfort as soon as you start exploring the neck beyond the first positions.

Note: the presence of a zero fret is a real plus on an instrument of this type. It contributes to a consistent feel between open strings and fretted notes, and facilitates coherent action, especially useful when learning to place your first chords accurately.

Recommended Compatible Accessories

To fully enjoy your TUS35 daily, a clip-on chromatic tuner is the simplest and most universal accessory to keep precise tuning, both at home and on the go. A microfiber cloth is also useful for wiping the top and neck after playing to maintain a clean finish longer.
