Flight TUC50 Travel Concert Ukulele With Bag - Walnut
The Flight TUC50 Walnut Travel Concert Ukulele is a sophisticated addition to the Travel Series, offering a more traditional aesthetic by featuring a beautiful laminate walnut top. This model bridges the gap between the classic look of a wooden instrument and the extreme durability of a hybrid build. As a concert-sized ukulele from Flights Ukuleles, it provides a deeper, warmer resonance and a longer fretboard than a soprano, making it an excellent choice for players who want a "grown-up" look in a travel-ready package.
Elegant Walnut Tone and Hybrid Durability
The use of walnut for the soundboard gives this model a darker, more complex tonal character compared to the brighter linden wood models in the same series. This wood top is paired with a rounded, arched ABS plastic back, which is engineered to resist the warping and cracking typically caused by changes in weather or humidity. The arched shape of the plastic back acts as a natural resonator, reflecting the warm vibrations of the walnut top forward to produce a surprisingly loud and punchy acoustic volume.
Professional Playability and Appointments
Designed for comfort and longevity, the TUC50 features a reinforced ABS plastic neck that is completely immune to the "fret sprout" or neck bowing often seen in entry-level wooden instruments. It includes a zero fret to ensure perfectly low string action at the nut, making it effortless to hold down chords across all 17 frets of the concert scale. The instrument is finished with high-quality open-geared tuners for stable intonation and a pre-installed strap button for easier standing play. Every Walnut Travel Concert model comes with a signature blue denim-style padded gig bag, ensuring your instrument is protected wherever your music takes you.
