Flight VOYAGER-TEQ All Solid Spruce, Acacia Electro-Accoustic Tenor Ukulele w/ Bag
A Voyager is a restless traveller, always looking for new, uncharted experiences. Voyager is also a striking tenor-sized ukulele with a solid spruce top and solid acacia back and sides.
It has a comfort edge for comfortable playing, a beautiful abalone rosette and a unique headstock shape. Its punchy sound will leave you speechless, with a voice that is as beautiful as its high gloss finish.
Spruce doesn't have any of the wild and beautiful patterns of other exotic woods but it is an unassuming stalwart for some of the richest tones you can get on a solid wood instrument. Married with solid acacia for the back and sides, Flight has used a perfect combination of these woods that is favored by some of the world's best luthiers.
Tech Ebony is a composite wood used by many high end luthiers. Flight are great believers in using the right material for the job and we have no hesitation in using composites where we feel it will bring the highest quality to the instrument as well as contribute to global sustainability. The high end Tech Ebony is a stunning alternative to rosewood which the flagship Royal Series is well deserving and means you can travel the world without the stress of CITES certification.
String-through bridge is one of the latest ukulele trends. It makes the top resonate better, due to strings being attached directly through the top soundboard, and not to the bridge. Changing the strings might seem a bit confusing at first, but actually it is easier and we are going to upload a tutorial on our Youtube channel really soon. D'Addario strings have recently been rising in popularity and after lots of tests Flight decided to feature them on the Royal series.
Ebony armrest was designed to provide a smooth surface for your playing arm to rest on, making this ukulele as comfy as a Victorian couch, but looking as modern as a Flight ukulele should be.
Most of serious ukulele brands use passive piezo pickup, which is why for the higher-end models Flight decided to shift from using EQ system to passive piezo. It makes the ukulele lighter and more balanced, eliminates the unwanted string rattle and provides as a strap button.
Flight wanted the new headstock to be bold and striking, infusing innovation into all the benefits of a slotted headstock. Its round, airy shape not only looks amazing, it also makes the headstock lighter than most. You will certainly be turning heads with this one.
While Fight's signature beige color has already become legendary, Flight wanted something different for this series, which is why they went for a Burgundy Red with a purple infusion. Associated with royalty, this regal color adds a final touch to the Royal Series. 20mm padding is thick and ensures good protection for your uke.
