I just purchased a Yamaha YPC-61 on eBay for $500. It's a great little piccolo.

You've asked the same question twice previously, as far back as February.

Have you actually tried any piccolos that have been recommended to you? Which do you like?

I just purchased in a Yamaha PC-62 pre-owned at my store that is for sale for $999.99. It's in great condition, with all new cork pads. You can email me direct Daniel.miller@samashmusic.com
