Flight A10 SC Cocobolo Dragon 10th Anniversary Tenor Ukulele
Solid Spruce Top and Solid Cocobolo Back and Sides Handcrafted Tenor Ukulele with a Dragon Fretboard Inlay
Let your music take
Amazing tonewood
The soundboard pf the A10 SC Cocobolo Dragon 10th Anniversary Tenor Ukulele is made from top grade solid Engelmann Spruce, which produces an open sound with great response. The back and sides of the ukulele are made from cocobolo, beautiful tropical hardwood with a bright tone but with deep resonation. The combination is both visually stunning and audibly pleasing. Each ukulele in our A10 series is handcrafted by a single master luthier.
An enchanted neck and fingerboard
Mahogany neck & ebony fingerboard with dragon inlay
The neck of the Flight A10 SC Cocobolo Dragon Tenor Ukulele is made of mahogany, so it is very stable and resistant to warping.The fretboard is made of ebony, which is thought to be the finest hardwood for a fingerboard. Ebony gives a clear, crisp attack and offers a slick and fast playing experience. The centerpiece of the neck of the instrument is the dragon inlay, which is the symbol of Ljubljana, Slovenia, the home of Flight Ukulele.
Pitch perfect
Bone compensated saddle and pin bridge
The A10 Series features an ebony bridge (matching the fretboard), as well as a real bone nut and a compensated saddle. Compensated saddles help to properly set the intonation of each string. The A10 series uses a pin bridge system, which helps keep the strings properly aligned on the ukulele, as well as to create a break angle over the saddle that transfers vibrations efficiently to the soundboard of the ukulele.
The appointments matter
Rosette, binding, and purfling
The A10 SC Cocobolo Dragon Tenor Ukulele features a redwood rosette with a special Roman number “X” to represent the 10th anniversary. In addition, the ukulele sports gorgeous black binding highlighted by a stripe of purfling. Absolutely magnificent!
A twist on our headstock design
Special anniversary headstock
To celebrate our 10th anniversary, we wanted to feature ukuleles with a different headstock, so while the A10 models feature some similarity to our Royal Series, we have adapted the anniversary models with a special twist to make them unique and special.
Incredible gig bag included
Anniversary gig bag
In addition to selling great ukuleles at incredible prices, Flight Ukulele is known for including a gig bag with every ukulele. Our deluxe gig bag is one of the very best gig bags on the market. For these special anniversary models, we have once again improved on our already-fantastic gig bag, with slight changes to match the design of the A10 series.
Taking care of your ukulele
Why do you need a humidifier?
If you live in an area with low humidity, the wood of any instrument can dry and warp, causing issues with playability, such as fret buzz and dead string sounds. This isn’t a design fault; it’s how wood behaves naturally. We love the instruments we make, and we want you to continue enjoying them. Our Flight A10 Series comes with a Flight Ukulele Humidifier included.
