Flight LUS-5 Heritage Con Neck Soprano Ukulele
The Flight LUS-5 Heritage Concert Neck Soprano Ukulele is a specialised "longneck" model that offers the best of both worlds: the bright, traditional "chatter" of a soprano body with the expanded playability of a concert neck. Crafted from all-solid mahogany, this instrument provides a warm, vintage-inspired tone with a focused midrange. Since the entire body is solid wood, it acts as a unified resonator, creating a rich acoustic voice that will naturally evolve and improve in resonance as the mahogany matures over time.
The Longneck Advantage
The defining feature of the LUS-5 is its elongated neck, which provides a longer scale length and more frets than a standard soprano. This design is perfect for players who love the compact, punchy sound of a soprano body but find a traditional soprano fretboard too cramped for complex chords or soloing. Flight Ukuleles has engineered this model to provide the extra tension and sustain of a larger instrument while maintaining the iconic, lightweight feel of a soprano, making it a favourite for technical players who value portability.
Heritage Series Refinement
As part of the Heritage Series, the LUS-5 is built with premium appointments that ensure a professional-grade experience. The high-gloss finish protects the all-solid mahogany while adding a brilliant lustre that makes the wood grain pop. This model features a rosewood fingerboard and bridge for a smooth playing feel, while the bone nut and compensated saddle guarantee superior vibration transfer and pitch-perfect intonation. To further refine the sound, it comes equipped with Worth Brown fluorocarbon strings, which provide a clear, bell-like tone and exceptional durability.
Professional Protection
Because all-solid instruments are sensitive to changes in climate, the LUS-5 is paired with a deluxe 20 mm padded burgundy gig bag. This high-quality case offers the necessary insulation and structural support to keep your solid mahogany longneck safe during travel or storage. Whether you are a performer looking for a unique stage instrument or an enthusiast wanting more room on the fretboard, the LUS-5 delivers heritage quality with modern versatility.
