The electro acoustic Flight Fireball baritone ukulele is made with all solid mango and we absolutely lovely. Their tenor ukuleles have been our best selling instruments for 2 years. We can't wait to see what you make of the baritones.
Flight are a ukulele brand with a prevalent reputation and an endless list of internet ukulele stars on their roster... The introduction of a new flagship model with the 'Fireball' spec will no doubt lead to even more excitement.
The Flight Fireball baritone ukulele follows in the footsteps of the popular aurora baritone ukulele which is an ever so marginally enlarged baritone ukulele! Except, it is all solid mango which oozes class in both appearance and tone. Mango is warm and reserved whilst being capable of truly dynamic playing when you want it to.
The Fireball features dyed-maple binding with a very cool large black plastic soundhole rosette and a slimline, very retro-futuristic slotted headstock that weighs next to nothing that really impressed us. The tuners are good and the upper fretboard can be reached thanks to a scoop style cutaway. We also love the very subtle maple armrest for maximum comfort.
This Fireball also comes with a padded branded Flight gigbag and an active double undersaddle pickup with soundhole mounted volume and tone an end pin jack socket
This is a great buy for someone wanting an all solid wood ukulele they can take out the house and use a gig or just through an amp with some effects for a bit of fun.

Note: Flight ukuleles are a fantastic choice at this particular price point because they often offer extra features and striking wood that defy the expectations of this price. However, they do suffer from cosmetic flaws and small finish defects like other Chinese made production instruments. We do our best to capture major issues but you may find some small imperfections on close inspection that cannot be avoided.
