Flight Voyager EQ-A Tenor Ukulele
A Voyager is a restless traveller, always looking for new, uncharted experiences. Voyager is also a stunning ukulele with a solid spruce top and solid acacia back and sides. It has a comfort edge for comfortable playing, a beautiful abalone rosette, and a unique headstock shape. Furthermore, it includes a pickup so you are always ready to perform onstage. The Voyager’s punchy sound will leave you speechless, with a voice that is as beautiful as its high gloss finish.
Light and dark
The Voyager uses a highest grade solid spruce top with solid acacia back and sides. Spruce doesn’t have any of the wild and beautiful patterns of other exotic woods but it is an unassuming stalwart for some of the richest tones you can get on a solid wood instrument. Married with acacia for the back and sides, we have used a perfect combination of these woods that is favored by some of the worlds best luthiers.
Beautiful rosewood
Rosewood fretboard and bridge
In 2020, previous CITIES restrictions on the use of exotic woods were modified to allow their use in music instruments, so all new Voyager models include a rosewood fretboard and bridge.
Before Mid-2020, Voyager ukuleles featured a tech ebony fretboard, and some dealers still have those models in stock.
Infinite sustain
String-through bridge
String-through bridge is one of the latest ukulele trends. It makes the top resonate better, due to strings being attached directly through the top soundboard, and not to the bridge. Changing the strings might seem a bit confusing at first, but actually it is easier and we are going to upload a tutorial on our Youtube channel really soon. D’Addario strings have recently been rising in popularity and after lots of tests we decided to feature them on our Royal series.
Everything for comfort
Stylish armrest
Ebony armrest was designed to provide a smooth surface for your playing arm to rest on, making this ukulele as comfy as a Victorian couch, but looking as modern as a Flight ukulele should be.
Invincible yet mighty
Double C1U active pickup
Through mid-2020, Voyager models featured a passive Artec pickup. Some vendors still have these models in stock.
In mid-2020 Flight moved to using Double C1U active pickups on the Voyager. The controls for the active pickup are mounted underneath the sound hole, meaning that a cavity does not have to be created on the side of the ukulele for the pickup. Most importantly, they sound great! Ukuleles with the new active pickups include an “A” (for “Active”) as a part of their model number.
A fresh, new look
Bold and striking
We wanted our new headstock to be bold and striking, infusing innovation into all the benefits of a slotted headstock. Its round, airy shape not only looks amazing, it also makes the headstock lighter than most. You will certainly be turning heads with this one.
Only the best gig bag
Royal burgundy
While our signature beige color gig bag has become legendary, we wanted to offer something different for this series, which is why we went for a Burgundy Red with a purple infusion. Associated with royalty, this regal colour adds a final touch to our Royal Series. With 20mm padding, the gig bag is thick and ensures good protection for your uke.
Taking care of your ukulele
Why do you need a humidifier?
If you live in an area with low humidity, the wood of any instrument can dry and warp, causing issues with playability, such as fret buzz and dead string sounds. This isn’t a design fault; it’s how wood behaves naturally. We love the instruments we make, and we want you to continue enjoying them. Our Flight Voyager, as well as the Royal Series, comes with a Flight Ukulele Humidifier included.
