TJ Grenadilla model Piccolo

A beautiful and free blowing African Blackwood piccolo with silver-plated mechanism
Precision, focus, and tonal authority

The TJ Grenadilla wood piccolo offers a refined, controlled voice, designed for players seeking clarity, projection, and complete confidence across the full range of the instrument.

Crafted from African Blackwood (Grenadilla) and paired with a headjoint carefully hand ‘voiced’, this TJ piccolo brings a level of focus and stability that allows the player to shape sound with precision rather than force.

The tonal character is centred and articulate, with a natural depth that avoids the harshness often associated with piccolo playing. The sound projects clearly, yet retains control, allowing for both brilliance and refinement in equal measure.

At the heart of the instrument is the reformed embouchure, hand cut and shaped to optimise response. It provides a secure tonal core, helping the player maintain stability in the upper register while allowing for a wide dynamic range and expressive flexibility.

The result is a piccolo that feels composed and reliable under the embouchure, one that supports confident performance in ensemble, orchestral, and solo settings alike.
