Flea Ukulele Uke by The Magic Fluke Company (Model M30)For Sale: FLEA UKULELE by The Magic Fluke Company • New Hartford, CT USA (Model M30)
Cute little uke in good shape, made by the infamous Magic Fluke Company. There are only a couple of minor flaws - see the small areas where there is chipping in the paint of the edge. A little dusty from age. Sounds great though :)
This one appears to be hand-painted or screenprinted -- probably made prior to the company printing with lower-quality dye sublimination artwork. Unfortunately I am not a musician so I am not sure if this is Soprano or Tenor, and I don't know which woods were used in its construction.
Info on the Flea Ukulele:
Introduced in 2002, the Flea is another departure from the classic ukulele form. Created by Dale Webb, the Flea features the same hybrid design as the Fluke: a unique composite construction of wood and injection molded thermoplastic.
The combination of wood soundboard and acoustically resonant thermoplastic body, gives this instrument an edge over the traditional standard ukes. It has a rich and bright sound, is comfortable to hold and stands up on its end as well. Known for its easy play-ability with a full 14" soprano scale and generous string spacing - a favorite for seasoned players or a perfect first uke. Its durable construction and meticulous set up is ideal for class or travel, weighing in at about one pound.
Solid maple or walnut neck; laminate top of hoop pine or walnut; solid top of spruce or koa. Injection molded thermoplastic body; and polycarbonate or hardwood fretboard (standard with koa). Fleas come standard with D'Addario Nyltech strings. Made in the USA.
