Summer is Coming! Time to get Outside!
There are ukuleles… and then there are Flight Travel Ukuleles—the cheeky chameleons of the uke world, built to bounce around your backpack, your beach blanket, your bedroom, or your bandstand with equal ease. At Musicmaker, Dublin’s long-standing temple of tone, we’re all-in on these brilliant beauties. And it’s not hard to see why.
These ukes don’t just travel—they strut.
Built for Adventure, Drenched in Personality
Let’s get one thing clear: the Flight Travel Series isn’t here to sit politely on a stand and wait its turn. Oh no. These plucky little legends are made for the road, the rambles, the random jam sessions at 2am around a kitchen table in Lisbon.
With backs and sides made of near-indestructible ABS plastic, they’re practically weatherproof. Rain in Galway? No problem. Sand in your bag after a day at Lahinch? Bring it on. Left it in a hot car in Spain? She’ll be grand.
But tough doesn't mean rough—these ukes are comfy to play, gorgeously responsive, and properly loud for their size. Linden wood tops keep the tone crisp and charming, while the ABS fingerboard stays silky smooth even after months of camping, couch surfing, or canal-side serenades.
Colours Like a Sweet Shop, Styles Like a Catwalk
Let’s talk about vibes, because Flight Travel Ukes come in more looks than a fashion week finale. We’ve got a full rack of candy-coated charisma right here at Musicmaker, just waiting to leap off the shelf and into your arms.
The TUS-35 Travel Series Soprano is the OG travel warrior—light, lively, and available in more colours than a jellybean factory spill. Think juicy purples, rich greens, sky blues, natural tones for the earthy types, and of course, the classic black for those moody folk-ballad moments.
Want to level up the drama? Say hello to the Flight UTS-35 Ultra Travel Series Soprano—a sleek, modern reimagining of the travel uke, available in gorgeously muted shades like Terracote, Fog, Ether, Sand, and Ink. These ones don’t shout—they smoulder.
And every single one of them comes with a proper gig bag. Not one of those tragic drawstring sacks, no. A real bag, with zips and dignity. Because your uke deserves it.
More Than a Pretty Face
These aren’t toys, folks. These are serious little instruments. They’re built to sound bright, stay in tune, and take a beating without complaining.
Fancy a bit of stage time? We’ve even got electro-acoustic models—yes, you can plug ‘em in and let them rip.
Need stability? These ukes laugh in the face of temperature swings and humidity horrors. Take them from freezing Dublin winds to a Croatian beach party without breaking a sweat.
Just starting out? Perfect. They’re easy to play, forgiving on the fingers, and outrageously fun.
Who Are They For?
You, your niece, your grandad, your mate who only plays Wonderwall on guitar—anyone with fingers and a grin. The Flight Travel uke is a gateway instrument, a road-trip essential, a mood-lifter, a conversation-starter, a tiny, four-stringed miracle that fits in your hand and blows your expectations out of the water.
It’s a passport to spontaneous music, to busking bravado and living room legends.
Pick One Up at Musicmaker
We’ve got the lot. The colours. The models. The gig bags. The big smiles that come from playing them. Walk into Musicmaker on Exchequer Street and you’ll see them stacked like a festival line-up waiting to happen. Or hop onto our website and grab your next travel companion from the comfort of your couch.
