The remarkable PFP-165E Piccolo is the culmination of years of exploration and research into the creation of a totally new material—grenaditte. Precise pitch, an exquisite tonal center and a spacious dynamic range are all to be found within this new, innovative instrument. Grenaditte is impervious to temperature fluctuations, ensuring Pearl's remarkable performance anywhere. In line with the entire Pearl flutes range, the PFP-165E is manufactured with Pearl's world-renowned Pinless mechanism on its silver-plated keys as standard, and is the only piccolo on the market to feature this innovation. If all of these were not sufficient, the Pearl piccolo includes French pointed arms, a bulb-design headjoint with a high wave, and a Split-E mechanism. The French-style case and fleece-lined cover are supplied with cleaning rod, gauze, polishing cloth and cork grease.
