Flight 4SB Sammy Turton Signature Solid Spruce/African Mahogany Tenor Ukulele

Introducing Flight 4SB Sammy Turton Signature Solid Spruce/African Mahogany Tenor Ukulele, a distinctive ukulele created in partnership between Flight and ukulele artist 4stringboy. The Flight 4SB enhances a popular combination of tonewoods for today’s players. It blends a solid spruce top with a solid rosewood body to deliver a clear, resonant tone that truly shines during play. Designed by Sammy Turton (4stringboy), the ukulele showcases a sleek black finish, including a gloss black top, black tuners, black bridge pins, and a unique black deluxe gig bag. Additionally, natural elements like the rosewood body’s gloss finish revealing its natural grain, along with caramel swirls of spalted maple on the rosette, cutaway, bindings, fret markers, and headstock, add an elegant touch.

Looking to make a statement with a contemporary ukulele? If so, the Flight 4SB in black is the perfect choice for you!

The Flight 4SB features a solid spruce top and solid rosewood back and sides, producing a rich, warm sound with depth in the mid and low ranges and excellent clarity and projection in the high end. This classic combination of tonewoods from guitars translates exceptionally well to this tenor ukulele.

Crafted from African mahogany, the neck of the Flight 4SB is sturdy and smooth, enhancing the instrument’s warm tone. The rosewood fretboard complements this by adding warmth and reducing harsh high frequencies.

Equipped with a rosewood bridge, a real bone nut, and a compensated saddle, the Flight 4SB ensures proper string intonation and efficient vibration transfer to the soundboard through its pin bridge system. The ukulele also features a stylish spalted maple rosette and a matching scalloped cutaway for easy access to upper frets without compromising tone or volume.

Sporting a distinctive “modified” slotted headstock, the Flight 4SB not only looks striking but also optimizes string break angle at the nut for superior tone. Each Flight 4SB comes with a luxurious black Deluxe Gig Bag featuring a velvety interior, setting a new standard for ukulele gig bags.
