And immediately, one might ask why didn't fender do something more like this with their ukes? Flight went out on a limb with this one, and there are a few gaffs, but I like it, it looks like a decent instrument for some electric fun. Nice review, as always!
I actually like the darker blue on the back, I like the contrast. The electric ukes do seem to be gaining popularity, as my "pending" Vorson purchase, (two months later, and still out of stock), seems to attest. Nice to see another more affordable electric uke come on the market. The price of a Risa is a bit much, if you just want to see if an electric uke is right for you. I know you feel a little uneasy doing reviews on these, but it is appreciated.
Boy, Flight is really kicking it, eh? This time they beat Kala to the punch. I don’t care for it, I have no desire to play a steel string E uke, but I can see the potential, especially for the younger crowd. I have no idea what I would do with it, but a friend who is a George Harrison imitator would get a real kick out of this.
I ordered the all black version of the Pathfinder to match my all black Vorson LP... I plan on replacing the strings to something a little thicker.. I think I will change one or both of the pickups to DiMarzio's and toss the Flight's stock pickups on the Vorson maybe.
@@GotAUkulele No so i will have to do a little bit of carpentry. Dig about a 1/2 inch or so on each side so that they can fit. Like with the Vorson they probably did not use the best quality pickups to keep price low.. I replaced one of the pickups already on the Vorson actually with DiMarzio's True Velvet middle pickup in the neck position. I saw a video of someone who replaced the pickups on their Vorson with Seymour Duncan single coils which were full sized guitar pickups. I liked the sound it produced. Seymour Duncan brand is a good quality pickup too but I opted for DiMarzio. I have always been a fan of DiMarzio brand pickups. i have DiMarzio PAF pickups on my Ibanez electric guitar. At some point I may replace the bridge pickup in the Vorson too as well with a DiMarzio True Velvet bridge pickup. Sometimes the DiMarzio's i want are at a good price on Amazon for between 69 to 100 US. Changing out the pickups and strings will make it a bit closer to the same level as a Risa. May replace the switcher on the Pathfinder as well. With all the upgrades i might as well buy a Risa some would say but i like customizing.
@@GotAUkulele The rails would look and sound great and not stand out so much. I think when they shrunk down the pickups to fit a ukulele the quality kinda shrunk too. As time goes on and the brands see there is a big market they will probably take the pickup quality more seriou and not just as a novelty.
I think you're dead right about the want for the Risa but being put off by the price - that was the exact reason I bought my first guitar, an epiphone les Paul!
i think that shredding on this and playing leads is great for this uke but if you are wanting to use this uke as just strumming chords its not the right thing. i think the sound is great and the looks are just amazing, i am getting this for Christmas and i just cant wait. thanks for your review!
In my opinion one major big difference regarding the sound feeling with these electric ukuleles will be that it comes in low G tuning. Lots of people have the high G tuning in their ears/mind, when thinking about ukuleles, which give this nice Hawaii sound. After watchin your video yesterday, I directly ordered one used Flight Pathfinder electric ukulele. Maybe I will also try a high G tuning, by using a differente G-string. I calculated the new G-string (0.28mm) by considering to have the same string tension (Arround 55 N) as the other 3 strings, but the G is tuned one octave higher. So, insted of using the original Strings (4=0.66mm(26), 3=0.43mm(17), 2=0.33mm(13), 1=0.25mm(10)), I will try this configuration: 4=0.28mm(11), 3=0.43mm(17), 2=0.33mm(13), 1=0.25mm(10). Did you already tried this? Of cause afterwards it might be necesarry to adjust the bridge.
@@GotAUkulele Ok, thank you for your quick reply! Do you think it will be worth to try this? Wold you prefer a high G-tuning on these electric ukuleles?
They probably added a seperate fret board to make it easier to install that truss rod. If they hadn't done that they would have had to route out a channel on the back of the neck and fit a skunk stripe, which takes longer and is harder to get right. Installing the truss road from the front and gluing a fretboard over the top is just a more economical way of building an instrument.
It looks great, i'll give you that but that's pretty much were the excitement ends for me, i'v watched a couple more reviews before i watched yours today, including the one comparing it with a Risa, i have to say i was not impressed sound wise. i love Flight and ordered a second Uke from them just a week ago but i think they have a long way to go when it comes to solid body electric ukuleles, it's a whole different animal that requires higher skills in order to achieve good intonation, smooth playability and choosing the right electronics. i also think the thin strings are a big mistake, with an electric ukulele that is designed to play rock music, i believe higher gauge and 3rd and 4th wound strings are a must . finally the amp, and i get your point but still, just as the average guitar player would play a decent quality 20W-30W amp (doesn't have to be tube amp), you need to play it through a decent amp in order to get the sound it deserves. I do hope they fix those issues for their next line (if they decide to go for it at all) as well as adding a Baritone to the mix, if the price remains in that area i'll be happy to try one.
Strings are the same gauge as Risa STRISAST-T 10-26 for example. Also correct intonation is easier to achieve on electric Guitars etc, due to adjustable saddles, as opposed a fixed/glued wooden bridge on Acoustic instrument.
@@GotAUkulele That's because I set it up before you got it :-D I really enjoyed your video. I have the Centurion also and that one is hard to put down.
I've bought two, acoustic Flight ukes and both had sharp fret edges that needed extra work. The tone for this electric was really disappointing. The notes seemed clipped and missing at times. Thanks for the review though. The visual appeal was pulling me in, but the actual sound coming out of it is a big no for me.
I don't know. I play guitar as well and it doesn't seem to provide much of a reason to go with this over a proper guitar. It does look nice though. I guess it could be a thing for strictly a uke player. I mean, fun, right? I know, too, that there will be a couple of players which can make this instrument really sing.
I was hoping you would review one of these. It looks like a ton of fun, especially once you start playing around with delays and distortion. Great review! 🎸👍
Yeah - you are probably right. Still - on maple neck fender guitars they put the rod in without a separate fingerboard. No biggie though - you don't notice it
I was able to find a Vorson on Amazon for $60. At that price I couldn’t resist it and I won’t feel as bad if it gets messed up when I have new components put into it to replace the factory ones.
@@shoshishararecordingsshosh1501 I am in the US. I actually purchased mine in the summer of last year.

@@GotAUkulele fair enough. I am accustomed to playing without one on my accoustic ukuleles but this electric would probably sound best with one... Another opportunity to learn a new skill.
Hi! You've kindly before guided me to the perfect person for a specific uke bag I was looking for. I'm considering a flight ukulele but I'm reading about quality check issues, are there vendors you recommend that will double check these things? I'm in France but I've ordered from the UK before as well. Thank you for all your reviews and have a good day! 😃
I'm not really a fan of electric ukes right now mainly because I feel like they are trying too hard to copy a guitar. Despite their similarity in appearance, they are still different instruments and that should be taken into consideration when making something like this. It really just needs more development to really emphasise the unique specialities of an ukulele and someone new to take it to the same heights as an electric guitar.
They are probably not by bag either - but then I own electric guitars. But when you see the demand the shops face from buyers to get hold of them, I suspect we are in the minority!
@@GotAUkulele I guess it's quite understandable considering the reputation of the electric guitar and how many people want to play the ukulele in the same way. It's just that the uke is too different and I think thats just overlooked out of excitement.
Wow. Not really my cup of tea, but my Dad (he's 82 Dec 28th) would probably love it, but then he's been playing electric guitar in bands for 60+ years!! Might show him this at Christmas lunch...may start to see the Ukulele as a real instrument. I, on the other hand, am decidedly acoustic in preference - I do own an electric acoustic, (Martinez "Southern Belle"Concert) and have just purchased an upgrade in the form of a Flight Mustang (locally) and Romero Creations Mango Grand Tenor (no pickup) from SUS. It's actually quite a striking instrument, but I agree regarding the back colour...would have thought a shade darker than the darkest front blue would be as far you'd want to go. Don't feel the need to add it to my little collection, but it might make a good Fathers day gift in 2021. Hope you and yor family are staying safe, and have a great Christmas.
Hi I bought a centuryon electric ukelele tenor but I don't know how to tune it!! I tuned whit whit the normal app for ukelele but the G string is too tight .
Thanks Barry as always Do like the back Do like the front Do like the price very, very much I think I will be buying something from Southern at some point this summer. I was trying to convince myself Risa were worth the extra but I’m honestly not sure they are after all. Cheers
Nice uke...by the way, i had several quality control problems with Flight(had to send back two Phantoms with twisted necks and bridge not glued properly...just not playables!) Finaly i changed my mind to a K5 from Enya, with a perfect setting(never been disapointed by this brand!)...just for info😏 Thx Baz...amazing work as always🙏!!!
I am curious if these solid body ukes will be any famous in the next few years. I don't understand why it goes out of tune in the first fret. I play open chords on electric guitar too and never had any problem with the chords goes sharp ,if the nut is well set up. But it sounds so much out of tune on yours.
The Risa solid ukes have been around for approaching 10 years and they sell out as soon as shops get them. - so I would say they will. There is no issue with the nut on this (it has a zero fret) - but playing trad uke chord sequences tends to employ a harder grip on the neck that wont work on a steel string electric.
Yes, but you'd probably need slightly different strings. The stock 1st and 2nd strings will be fine for the D and A, but the C and G are a bit of a stretch away. Would need thicker 4th string and very slightly thinner 3rd i'd say. I'm guessing though.
I just recently change out my strings and used Ernie Ball Power Slinky in 4-18p-28-38 nickel wound strings and it has made my pathfinder sound incredible. Highly recommend!!
It doesnt sound anywhere as nice as the the Fanner Pixelator Tenor. I think the second pickup on the bridge is completely unnecessary and one would have surficed. Sounds a bit screechy with not much low end.... Guessing its high G on the G string?
Thanks for the review. Sounds like my electric lead guitar. You have the same amp as me! I won't be buying it as not the sound I'm now after. Want a more ukulele sound ta.
If you change out the strings for a thicker gauge it sounds much better, the strings it comes with makes it sound thin and unstable. Much better with new strings!
Baz, 11:50 is where it got really interesting for me! I loved that! I love your downright honesty, always. Thank you for sharing!

Very beginner friendly
