Flight DUS330 Soprano Ukulele, Relic Overview
Made of distressed laminate spruce and laminate zebrawood, the Flight DUS330 Relic is a very unique ukulele. Many players tell us that an instrument that looks like it’s been through a tornado, a fire, and gigged a few thousand times is the most beautiful thing they have ever seen. Is it the promise of a broken-in feel, maybe that every ding and scratch tells a tale or the romantic memory of the instruments our idols played? The answer – is all of those. And while we can’t replicate the history of an instrument, we present you with the first-ever “distressed” ukulele (we checked)… It has that “broken-in feel” and will remind you of some of the most memorable moments in history. A unique “distressed” look gives the Flight DUS330 Relic a cool vintage vibe. We wanted it to feel just like an old friend, with whom you’ve been through a lot.
Spruce & Zebrawood
The Flight DUS330 Relic is made from distressed laminate spruce and distressed laminate zebrawood. These elements combine to deliver a sound that is punchy and bright when soloing in the high register and warm and velvety when thoughtfully strumming along by the fireplace. Finally, you can have it both ways! Moreover, we have created a special “distressed” look, never seen on a ukulele before.
Okoume Neck & Walnut Fingerboard
The neck and fingerboard of the DUS330 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 DUS330 Relic 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.
