The Flight DUC440 is a surprisingly well-voiced ukulele for the price. The all-acacia construction gives it a pleasing warmth and clarity, and the bone nut/saddle really helps. It's a great option for beginner to intermediate players looking for a quality instrument that won't break the bank and sounds fantastic for folk and Hawaiian styles.
