About the Modified Wave Headjoint (taken from the Hammig Site)
*Affords a great amount of stability and control with an extremely focused rich sound. A very gratifying response and wide dynamic range are characteristic qualities..

Playability:
This instrument sings with a beautiful even tone from low to high, and is a joy to play.   All notes play easily with a light touch to the keys.  It is very well adjusted.  Over the years, I've been told by several professional players and repair techs., that one sure sign that a piccolo is well-made, is if the high A plays with ease, and if the high E play softly without a struggle.  This particular piccolo is outstanding in comparison with many other professional makes and models, as it plays not only the high A with ease, but also the notes above high A.  Also, the high E speaks immediately and easily when played softly.  My techs and I are super impressed!

Price Comparison:
