Flight NUP310 Pineapple Ukulele, Sapele Overview
The Flight NUP310 Pineapple Ukulele offers more surface area on the soundboard than a traditionally shaped soprano ukulele, which results in more volume and a full tone. We wanted to offer an instrument in this traditional shape–which not only looks fun to play but sounds fantastic!
The Flight NUP310 Pineapple Ukulele is made from the highest quality laminate Sapele. Sapele is a light hardwood from tropical Africa with a golden to dark reddish-brown colour. A close relative of mahogany, its grain is interlocked and has a uniform texture and good natural lustre. Its natural resonance is boosted and concentrated by the arched back of the NUP310, yielding a clear and bright tone. The rosettes in all our ukuleles are drawn by hand and engraved by laser.
Okoume Neck & Walnut Fingerboard
The neck and fingerboard of the NUP310 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 NUP310 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.
Headstock design is an integral part of our identity. All Flight ukuleles feature a carefully-designed headstock fitted with geared tuners that will always stay in tune.
