The Hammig 650/4 R is a serious piccolo for the dedicated professional. Its reformed headjoint delivers a remarkably focused and powerful sound, and the Grenadilla wood body gives it a warmth often missing in piccolos. It's built for players who demand the very best and are willing to invest in top-tier craftsmanship – think principal players and seasoned orchestral flutists.
