Flight UTS-42 SUMMER CAT Ultra Travel Series Soprano Ukulele with Bag

Flight UTS-42 SUMMER CAT Ultra Travel Series Soprano Ukulele with Bag

The Flight UTS-42 SUMMER CAT Ultra Travel Series Soprano Ukulele with Bag is the same brilliantly tough, go-anywhere uke as its Fat Cat sibling — just with a slightly sunnier personality. It’s light, durable, and built for real life, whether that’s the beach, the back garden or bouncing around in a gig bag.

This is part of Flight’s Ultra Travel Series, so the whole instrument is constructed from reinforced polycarbonate plastic — top, back, sides, neck, fretboard and bridge. It’s incredibly resilient, meaning changes in temperature or humidity won’t throw it off, and you don’t have to worry about the occasional knock. It’s a proper “take it anywhere” instrument.

Despite that rugged build, it still sounds the part. The thin soundboard with lattice bracing keeps things lively and responsive, while the rounded back helps give it a bit more projection than you’d expect from a travel uke. Strung with Flight fluorocarbon strings, it delivers that bright, crisp soprano tone with nice clarity and snap.

It’s a 12-fret soprano with a 350 mm scale length, so it feels compact and easy to handle. The zero fret helps keep tone consistent across open and fretted notes, and the 37.3 mm nut width gives you a bit of breathing room for comfortable chord work.

There are loads of smart touches too — front and side position markers for easy navigation, a slotted bridge for quick string changes, open geared tuners for stable tuning, and a strap button already fitted.

And of course, the SUMMER CAT design brings the fun. Bright, playful and full of personality, it’s exactly what you want from a travel uke — something that doesn’t take itself too seriously but still delivers where it counts.

It comes with a drawstring gig bag, so you’re ready to throw it over your shoulder and head out straight away.

At Musicmaker, these Ultra Travel models are a favourite for players across Ireland who want something durable, great-sounding for the size, and a bit more interesting than the usual options.

If you’re after a travel ukulele in Ireland that’s tough, lightweight and packed with character, the Flight UTS-42 Summer Cat is a brilliant shout.
