Description
Solid mahogany top
We use a solid mahogany top for the NUS500 Soprano Ukulele, paired with laminate mahogany for the back and sides. Mahogany is a dense hardwood known for its straight grain and fine, even texture. Its tonal qualities produce a rich, warm sound with excellent sustain and balance. The solid top enhances resonance and projection, giving the NUS500 a full-bodied and dynamic tone. As with all our ukuleles, the rosettes are drawn by hand and engraved by laser.
Let's play
The neck of the NUS500 is made from okoume, a lightweight yet sturdy wood that ensures a comfortable playing experience. Paired with a rosewood fretboard, this combination offers smooth playability, stable intonation, and a sleek, modern look.
Pitch perfect quality
The bridge is where the magic happens! The string-through techwood bridge of the NUS500 provides excellent stability and smooth string vibration transfer, ensuring a balanced tone. The nut and saddle are made from ABS, a durable material that keeps the ukulele sounding great while offering reliable performance.
It all starts with the head
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. The NUS500’s headstock is made from rosewood, matching the fretboard for a cohesive look and a touch of elegance.
Denim Style
Light and stylish, yet offering excellent protection for your ukulele, Flight gig bags have become legendary. With one hanging off your shoulder you will definitely make heads turn.
