For many years now, choosing a custom headjoint for your flute has been standard practice, but piccolo players have had a harder time finding a headjoint that fits and plays well in tune.
This problem is at last solved thanks to Mancke's adaptable system, which ensures that there is a headjoint to fit all piccolos.
In store we are able to custom fit adapter sleeves for each specific design, then finely adjust the tuning of each headjoint according to your piccolo.
The result is a beautiful range of headjoints that are guaranteed to improve the response, colour and sonority of your piccolo.
These thinwall headjoints are designed to be highly responsive, versatile and friendly to play on.
This headjoint has been through our workshop prior to sale and is in excellent condition throughout. It was previously fitted to a Burkart & Phelan piccolo.
