Flight AUC33 Cupcake Concert Ukulele

At its heart, the AUC‐33 Cupcake is an excellent ukulele with a laminate spruce top and laminate mahogany back and sides, but it features a design twist: it features amazing artwork on the soundboard. There have been no shortcuts taken with the design of these instruments—they sound and play as good as they look. The neck of the AUC‐33 is made from African okoume, and the fingerboard is walnut. This is a great combination that guarantees a stable intonation across the fretboard. The neck feels amazing in your hands, and looks fantastic!

Of course, it is good to learn how to play the ukulele without using a strap, but why not use a strap if you can have it both ways? Strap makes holding the ukulele easier so you can keep playing for hours. It also allows you to be ‘hands free’ between songs. Flight care about the comfort of their Flighters, which is why Flight started adding strap buttons to all Flight ukes!

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. Headstock design is an integral part of Flight’s identity. All Flight ukuleles feature a carefully designed headstock fitted with geared tuners that will always stay in tune.

Light and stylish, yet offering excellent protection for your ukulele, Flight gig bags have already become legendary! Every Flight ukulele ships with a gig bag, and the bag included with the AUC‐33 is Flight’s standard bag with 5mm of padding, front pocket, handles, and backpack straps.
