Let your music take
How sweet it is
Vibrant maple and stellar mango
The Flight Songbird is a beautiful purple solid wood ukulele featuring a flamed maple top with mango back and sides. With its slim body design, it is comfortable to hold and easy to travel with, and does not compromise on tone. Mango offers a warm, resonant, and rich sound with excellent sustain, often compared to koa. Paired with the flamed maple top, the Songbird delivers a bright, sweet tone you won’t believe!
Let's play
African mahogany neck & rosewood fingerboard
The African mahogany neck of the Flight Songbird is strong and smooth, contributing to the instrument’s warm, resonant tone. The rosewood fretboard not only adds beauty and durability, but also helps soften harsher high frequencies for a balanced sound. Adding to its charm, the neck features a beautiful songbird design that brings a bold, artistic flair to the instrument.
Pitch perfect
Bone compensated saddle and pin bridge
The Songbird features a rosewood bridge, as well as a real bone nut and a compensated saddle. Compensated saddles help to properly set the intonation of each string. The Songbird includes 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 mango soundboard of the ukulele.
All dressed up
Stylish Blackwood rosette, comfort edge, and scalloped cutaway
The Flight Songbird features a Blackwood rosette, comfort edge, and scalloped cutaway. The comfort edge makes the ukulele incredibly comfortable to play, and the scalloped cutaway offers access to the highest frets without compromising the volume and tone of the ukulele.
Turning heads
Bold and striking headstock design
The Flight Songbird shares the unique “modified” slotted headstock as some of the other ukuleles in our Royal Series. The headstock looks amazing and will attract action on its own, while the design is strong and effective, making sure that the break angle at the nut results in the best possible tone of your ukulele.
Only the best gig bag
Royal burgundy
While our signature beige gig bag has become recognized in the ukulele world, we raised the bar with our Deluxe Gig Bag. The Deluxe Gig Bag has a royalty-inspired color (burgundy infused with purple) and incredible velvety interior. It isn’t often that the gig bag included with an instrument gets as much attention as the instrument itself–but that is what happened! We think it is the best gig bag that comes with any ukulele, period.
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 Songbird, as well as the Royal Series, comes with a Flight Ukulele Humidifier included.
