Thank you! I was looking for an upgrade for my Flight DUC523 ceq and your review really helped me choose the right model 😀 I‘m so happy with this Ukulele!
Glad I could help!
Sweet. A balanced criticism the kind of review I’ve been looking for. Thank you for your review 💞
You are so welcome!
Wow, it's sooo lovely. Love the tone. And I love it that mango is so sustainable, produces nice fruits, AND sounds so good. Flight really makes it easy to be their fan. I was eyeing their top shelf ukes for a while now and this is probably the one I'd pick. But I'm not finished with Diana Soundwave yet. Gosh I love that uke.
Flight just get better and better!
Very pretty looking and very pretty sounding! Flight has a winner, here! Thank you, Baz!
I’d say so!
Purely on your excellent review I have now bought one. I love it.
Enjoy it!!
Great review! Love the sound and look of that uke all the way around. Thank you!
My pleasure Fred!
Wow! What a stunner. I love the bridge and bridge pins. Love the black edging, striping, and cutaway styling. I don’t mind the dark smudging ... that’s just me. I’m also love the offset fret markers. So cool.
Sounds clear and well rounded to me. I’d definitely be happy with that one:)
It’s another great one from Flight for sure!
I’ve been waiting for this ukulele review
Yup me too.
Nice uke - worth waiting for!
These reviews are great. I don't even own a uke. Although I've been considering a baritone for some time now. What impresses me is that the choice of very decent ukuleles seems to get better and better at most price points. This is a stunner. As a non uke owner this is perhaps the one I like best of all the reviews I've seen. Even though I'm not keen on gloss finishes.
THey certainly are getting better and better - no better time to buy in my opinion. Used to be easy to find bad ones, but these days they are in minority.
This is so beautiful. What a fantastic review excellent. Thanks.
My pleasure!
Great review! Thanks for adding the saddle string spacing. I know it doesn't make a huge difference in the grand scheme of things but I like all those little details. What can I say, I'm a uke nerd 😜
Will try to remember to keep doing it!
Yet another great review of a very nice uke 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks!!
You brought a matching T-shirt! And I like the uke too! (even more)
It's a great uke (and great band on the t shirt too!)
That is a sharp looking uke. I like the scoop and the comfort edging and it doesn't sound too bad either. 👍
Yeah lovely design
Gorgeous, beautiful sustain!
It really is!
I call you the mad reviewer but I love the honesty and value your opinion. So much so, I don’t buy without your recommendation. Look for my PayPal soon my friend and thank you for what you do for this community!!!
I appreciate that!
This is similar to Flight Mustang which comes in Flamed Acacia with a black headstock and a string-through bridge. I replaced the strings with Flurocarbons which really lifted the sound and it's now my favourite Ukulele. If I have to leave this earth with one thing it'll be the Mustang....now where is Sally?
Yep - part of the same series
Flight has always impressed me. I have a cheap travel/plastic one which sounds decent for what it is. I'd be interested to see how their more serious ukuleles play and feel. I trust your reviews and opinions, as having purchased several of your recommendations - always spot on! Mim's Ukes started carrying Flight, so no other online store better than Mim's for a ukulele set up right in the US! Mango wood might be something different for my collection. Thanks for the review and look forward to the next.
They’ve long impressed me. They started with generic cheap laminates and took on board criticism. This is light years beyond where they started. But they still cater for the cheaper end - particularly with the brilliant travels you mention. Clever brand. They’d get my recommendation above Kala and Ohana now - easily.
@@GotAUkulele Same with Anuenue. Its older models were just average in sound and make, but these few years the brand have taken quite a leap [or should I say flight?] with the bird ukulele and guitar series.
@@SmallUkeBigWorld Hmm - not sure I 'fully' agree - I remember when aNueNue first appeared and there were some great models. They even had signature models with people like Phil Doleman. Then they seemed to go cheaper, then disappeared. There was a very good higher end at the start though. Nothing like today to be fair - with the MoonBirds - they are something else!
Yap, maybe coz those I tried were mostly laminates and solid tops, which were quite overpriced in Asia here when compared to the Kalas and Ohanas with the same specs and similar quality. They did try to break the higher end market here with a Japanese made Dolphin Koa series but with the same price and similar specs, most people would go for a Hawaiian make at the time.
a beautiful wood to look at but its not my bag, I own a big island mango concert uke and although its beautiful to the eye there is something missing with the sound, this instrument sounds quite sparkly and it has a lovely sustain fair play
Sounds good 👍
One of the nicest sounding ukes I've heard you review. Don't like the price or the headstock. Agree with you about the logo. Thanks again for your review. Stay safe.
Thank you kindly!
Nice uke! I'd like to see you review the Phantom or the Mustang ...thx Baz, always fair and, thanks god, subjective😏
Thank you!
Nice review, now I'm counting the day's to receive this one and more two model's to decide witch one I stay and the anothers I give back, Flight, Pono and Kala, all 3 Solid Wood.
Cheers
Enjoy!
Just IMO but after several selections of tenors and baris the Pono AB and AT are the keepers for me
@@hyabussa5747 I gonna trie one Tenor Pono Solid Acacia
@@cinneticportugal2392 you will not regret it.. order the Uke Logic strings too! OMG Beautiful tones!!
@@hyabussa5747 Today I received the Pono Acacia Deluxe Tenor - For me and my son the best sound of the 3 I receive, a clean and beautiful sound. Very bad finishes in the whole, full of glue, the frets of the arm with sharp points and a mark on the body. Yours are ok?
Love this Baz
Very nice ukes - hard to find too!
@@GotAUkulele thanks Baz, I got one on hold , it was either the Spirit , ot the FB , so glad I got advice from yoir video yesterday ,🙏🙏🙏
Very nice, Flight are a great Uke manufacturer.
They are indeed
I share your views on splatted mango. The first time I saw it I thought it was kind of nasty looking. It’s wood that has started to rot!
Pinned bridges belong on guitars, not ukuleles. UGH.
I like that side port, but that headstock is homely.
It sounds pretty darn good, from here.
Bridge pins are used by some very prestigious brands and help improve intonation 👍
Yeah - mango just looks 'mucky' to me! Great tone on this one though.
@@iphoneyt4327 in what way do they improve intonation please?
IS THERE MUCH BETWEEN THESE TO THE FLIGHT PHANTOM ????? PS,,, I SEE THE 3 GUITAR STORE OWNERS WATCHED THE REVIEW ,,, I REALLY WISH RUclips SCRAPPED THUMBS DOWN, MY ISSUE IS THE DOWNERS DON'T BACK IT UP WITH WORDS ,,,, GREAT REVIEW
Thanks - but sorry - never played the Phantom!
You said pretty good sustain. What tenor uke do you think has the best sustain? Hmmmm, might be a good video topic, hint hint.😊😊😊😊
Best is very hard to say! But will be something expensive, probably Hawaiian!
I wonder if it's possible to remove the pick up controls from the soundhole ??
I'm sure you could - I think these controls are held with double sided sticky pads
@@GotAUkulele Cheers. I hope so. I wonder how many people actually want to plug a ukulele in? Shame they don't do a model without the pick up (be cheaper too!)
Know what you mean about spalted woods. I always think, “Couldn’t they have found a better piece?”
It's not actually a spalted wood as such - not a true spalted - it's just a colouring in the grain of mango. Spalting is the jet black lines that follow the grain in woods like maple (and is actually a disease). This is not that - looks more like a smudge than distinct lines
So what you think its a good buy does it have good sustaine and bass??
Ummm - have you read the review?
@@GotAUkulele yeah
@@mkmichelle "
The volume it produces is excellent and I have no complaints on that score - this projects very well. Sustain is very good too and hangs about in a way that allows you to add some expression to picked notes.".... No uke has great bass though.. It's a ukulele.
Oh! Baz!
bit of alright, eh?
Why don’t you like mango you said its not your type ??
Only how some of it is coloured. Not the sound - like the sound.
@@GotAUkulele does it have loud sound unplugged or it lags ??
@@mkmichelle This model doesn't get any louder with the effects - perfectly passable volume unplugged
@@GotAUkulele I mean when its not plugged sounds loud?
@@mkmichelle Yes - as loud as most other acoustic ukes
Today I received the 3 Ukuleles; Kala Ziricote Super Tenor - I did not like the sound, and finishes very bad, to return. Pono Acacia Deluxe Tenor - For me and my son the best sound of the 3, a clean and beautiful sound. Very bad finishes in the whole, full of glue, the frets of the arm with sharp points and a mark on the body, it is normal this bad finishes at Pono????. Flight Fireball Mango Tenor - A good sound, but not as perfect as the Pono, it does have a more open sound and with more sustain. The finishes, the best of the 3, but still with glue there is a view, the Mango wood it is not a beautiful wood, I will go now order a Flight Phantom Tenor to decide which one I will stay to play with my son.
What, no back-mounted cup holders? I'm out.
