Why so low?
The PFP-165E uses a
fantastic synthetic pad known as the OmniPad.
These pads give superior performance,
stability and durability. However, like most
professional synthetic pads, they require a
higher level of technical expertise in order
to properly install. Pearl (Taiwan) has good
technicians, but they were not familiar
enough with the OmniPad to install them
reliably. Pearl knew that we have the
technical ability to properly setup OmniPads.
So a deal was made that provided us with a
great additional discount on these piccolos with the
understanding that we would do all of the shop
work to make them perfect! So we
professionally set the piccolo up in our shop
before we ship it to you to make sure that it
is perfect! This is why we can
beat everyone's price on these piccolos and
they will be setup better than any piccolo out
there!

The Pearl piccolo has set the
standard for performance of a
value piccolo. Offering
professional design and
manufacturing techniques, the
Pearl Grenaditte piccolo
outplays piccolos that are much
more expensive.
The PFP-165E
model uses the same
overall design and features as the PFP-105E
model but with 2 major improvements:
- Grenadilla Wood Headjoint with High Wave
Embouchure
- OMNI Synthetic
Pads
The Wood
headjoint adds much tonal warmth and color
bringing it closer in line with a full wood
piccolo. However, the body will still offer
all of the stability due to the Grenaditte
material. The OMNI pads
are quite arguably the best piccolo pad that
we have encountered. These pads offer
significant improvements in length of life,
adjustment stability & overall tonal response
and performance. These pads are a major
upgrade on ANY piccolo, and they are now
standard on the new PFP165E model.
About The Grenaditte
Material & Overall Piccolo Design
The remarkable
new Pearl Piccolos are 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 Pearl
Piccolos are manufactured with their world renowned
pinless mechanism on its Silver plated keys as
standard and is the only piccolo on the market
to feature this innovation.
This is THE
BEST performance level piccolo on the market.
Giving true professional performance at an
intermediate price level, there is no piccolo
on the market that plays at this level in this
price range.
