The warmth and response of a 4w
Posted by A typical aspiring flutist (on 6/17/14) -
I went to a local music store/repair shop to send my flute in. While I was there, I tried some wooden piccolos and one of them was a 4w. I was insanely impressed because I got the low d out all the way to a high c And the infamous b natural. The high register was very responsive and the tone was warm but had more color to it. This piccolo produced a bright tonal color all the way to a haunting dark color an alto flute is known for ( this is my opinion).the mechanism was sturdy and was not at all flimsy. It was a well built product and wouldn't mind owning one.Material Tone Quality Price -

I bought this new in 2006 and am still in love with it. Classic wood piccolo with unbelievable warm sounds (with a piccolo?)Material Tone Quality Price
yep! Did I mention that I am still in love with it? I really believe that Gemeinhardt did their homework on this one--but they are always outstanding in their workmanship. (I'm an original Bundy owner--so I know what I'm talking about). Now if only I could afford a Gemeinhardt 3SB flute! Someday this dream will come true too.
