Clarion cut headjoint: This relatively small embouchure hole, with modest rounding of the edges, is reminiscent of early French and German piccolos. The tone it produces is very focused and sweet. For players using a small aperture when playing, it will have the most stable, clear tone of the various headjoint styles.
This headjoint is in good condition and would be great for someone looking to develop a pure, sweet sound on the piccolo.
