The Flight Aviator Tenor Ukulele is a visually striking and acoustically rich instrument designed for players seeking a unique ukulele experience. Its all-solid wood construction combines a solid mango top with solid okoume back and sides, creating a warm, resonant tone with excellent sustain and clarity. Mango wood is known for its vibrant tonal qualities, often compared to koa, while the okoume wood enhances balance and projection.
The neck, crafted from okoume, is lightweight and comfortable to play, and it is paired with a rosewood fingerboard for smooth fretting and stable intonation. A bone nut and compensated saddle allow for efficient vibration transfer, enhancing the instrument's sound quality. This model is also distinctively the first Flight tenor ukulele to ship with Low G linear tuning as standard.
Visually, the Aviator stands out with its bold black headstock, black binding, and sleek gloss finish. Its thin, ergonomic design makes it comfortable to hold and play, while its unique scalloped shape ensures an impressive and modern aesthetic.
The ukulele comes with premium features like gold and black machine heads, offset blue dot position markers, and a royal burgundy deluxe gig bag that offers protection with style. With its combination of thoughtful design and quality craftsmanship, the Flight Aviator Tenor is ready to take your playing to the next level.
