Description taken from the Powell website:

The Powell Signature piccolo "is an easy blowing, even instrument with responsive articulation and a consistent, sweet sound. Signature piccolos are crafted by the same artisans who make our Custom piccolos in our Boston area workshop."

Condition
This piccolo is in excellent used condition with no chips, cracks or damage to the wood, and was last serviced eight months ago.  The finish on the keys is excellent and the pads have lots of life left in them with no tears or fraying.

History of this Piccolo:
Bought new five years ago, this beautiful instrument was owned by only one adult who treasured it and meticulously cared for it.  It is regretfully being sold out of necessity.

Playability:
This has a lovely dark and soothing tone with the ability to either project or play quietly.  The high register plays without a struggle, and is easier to play in tune than many other comparable piccolos.

Price Comparison:
The Powell Signature sells new at Flute World for $3841.  Asking $2700 plus reasonable shipping fee to the US or Canada.
