From the "Travel" Soprano Series to Concert: More Range, More Presence
Building on the success of its travel ukuleles in soprano format, Flight offers the concept in Concert size: maintaining the "easy-going" spirit (robustness, simple maintenance, immediate playability), while gaining in projection and playing range. This Concert version also stands out with a construction designed for efficiency, featuring a wooden top and an ABS body, ideal for an instrument frequently taken out, both at home and on the road.
Who Is This Flight Concert Ukulele Designed For?
This model is perfectly suited for beginners who want a reliable and comfortable instrument, as well as intermediate musicians looking for a "companion" ukulele to travel with, rehearse, or record demos. The Concert format, more spacious than a soprano, facilitates enriched chords, rhythmic playing as well as arpeggios, and adapts very well to pop, folk, reggae, light picking, and vocal accompaniment.
Sound Character: Linden Top, ABS Body, and Arched Back
The linden top provides a clear attack and balanced tone, pleasant for accompaniment. The arched back helps focus projection and gives a sensation of more direct response, useful for standing out in an acoustic mix. The use of ABS (back, sides, neck, fingerboard) promotes highly appreciated stability in daily use: the instrument remains more consistent against environmental changes, while maintaining a smooth feel for chord playing and quick transitions.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
To complement the instrument, you can opt for Aquila Concert ukulele strings (direct replacement), a Concert-sized gig bag for transport, and a chromatic tuner to ensure accurate intonation daily.
