The color of the sea and the color of your soul. This ukulele sings and sends you on a journey up and down the entirety of the fret board like a seasoned explorer. This will be the workhorse that weathers all the storms and keeps you floating with adulation from your audience. We have packed that beauty into a soprano ukulele to compress and focus the best assets of the instrument. The laminate sapele wood brings out the percussive punch of a soprano ukulele. With the striking dark colors concentrated into this small gem, you won’t want to put it down.

The Flight NUS380 Topaz is made from laminate sapele. Sapele is a light hardwood from tropical Africa with a golden to dark reddish brown color. We then added a beautiful finish to produce a different and striking look. A close relative of mahogany, its grain is interlocked and has a uniform texture with a good natural luster. Its natural resonance is boosted and concentrated by the arched back of this ukulele, which yields a clear and bright tone. The rosettes in all our ukuleles are drawn by hand and engraved by laser-etching.

The neck and fingerboard are made from African okoume and walnut. It’s a great combination that guarantees a stable intonation across the fretboard, is gentle to your hands, and looks great as well.

The nut may seem to be a small component, but it plays a critical role in the overall sound of an instrument. The nut and saddle of this ukulele are made from bone (not from plastic), which results in better tone quality.
