Not only are there stunning patterns, but the colours themselves are mesmerizing, ranging from shades of green to red or grey. No two Flight Mango ukuleles are the same, which makes your ukulele one of a kind!
Mango Wood
The Flight DUC450 is made from laminate mango. While known more widely for their fruit, Mango trees also yield beautiful and valuable lumber. The wood is considered very eco-friendly, as some Mango plantations harvest the trees for lumber after they have completed their useful fruit-bearing lifespan. Mango has a similar density to mahogany, and if used correctly, it can sound even sweeter than koa and warmer than mahogany.
Okoume Neck & Walnut Fingerboard
The neck and fingerboard of the DUC450 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.
Bone Nut & Walnut Bridge
The nut may seem to be a small component, but it plays a critical role in the quality of the sound of an instrument. The nut and saddle of the DUC450 are made from bone (not from plastic). This is just one of the details that makes this ukulele truly special.
Good-looking and easy to tune.
All Flight ukuleles feature a carefully-designed headstock fitted with geared tuners that will always stay in tune.
