About the Headjoint (taken from the Hammig Site)
*Thin-wall version of the modified wave style featuring a hand-carved raised embouchure plate. This innovative design combines the stability and clarity of the modified wave style with the flexibility of thin-wall tubing.

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 technicians that one sure sign that a piccolo is well-made is if the high A plays with ease, and if the high E plays 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.  I noticed when play-testing it, that the mid range is particularly stable as well, compared to other piccolos, as I could play with quite a bit of volume on the mid e, f and g without the notes cracking.
