Atelier Bonneville á Paris Piccolo Late 1800s - Grenadilla
Our users rate Reverb
For sale is my freshly overhauled and barely played Atelier Bonneville á Paris C piccolo made from grenadilla wood. I just got this back from my local repair shop and it sounds and plays so well. It can be a very mellow piccolo and has a nice woody tone. It also plays at 440, which can be hit or miss with piccolos of this age. The problem is that my hands are too big for the open holes. I have to switch over to a piccolo with modern ergonomics. My loss is your gain.
The piccolo has had a lot of work done in the overhaul. The tenon and first tonehole were completely remade and two cracks in the headjoint were pinned. The keys were polished and have all new pads and corks. Everything seals great (except for my fingers). The case (of similar vintage) is included plus a tenon cap that I 3d printed. I did make some 3D printed key touches that I can throw in as well.
Have a look at the pictures and feel free to ask any questions about this item. I am also willing to send more pictures or videos on request.
