People often think that plastic isn't a good material for making instruments. They associate it with cheap and low-quality materials. However, these ukuleles demonstrate that a good piece of plastic can certainly be used for instruments. The Flight Travel series ukuleles are made primarily of ABS plastic combined with a laminated basswood top. The sound of this combination is both full and loud, with good projection thanks in part to the curved back. This creates an instrument that both sounds good and is durable, making it ideal for travel or for children to play.
