5.0 out of 5 stars Great value for marching band, or the occasional player.
Reviewed in the United States on December 26, 2018
I recently bought a Easter flute and thought it was an incredible value, so I decided to get the piccolo for my son for Christmas.

The good:
* It comes in a nicely lined case, the closing latches are smooth and case will definitely protect the instrument. You can see from the picture that the keys come open with little red rubber wedges to prevent the keys from getting damaged during shipping. That's good attention to detail. Some of the other reviews show a different (bigger? softer?) case. I think I like mine better.
* The keys and springs operate smoothly, the pads appear to be of good quality and there is no air leakage around the keys.
* The instrument plays beautifully. The sound was sweet and breathy, not as shrill as I feared. We never owned a piccolo before, so I can't compare to other instruments. I can only say that I am very happy with how it sounds.
* It comes included with two cleaning cloths. The yellow chamois style can be used to wipe the exterior safely, and the blue one comes with a weighted ribbon to clean the inside. The weighted ribbon is a nice touch, but it also comes with a cleaning for for those who preferably that method for cleaning the inside. Very nice that no additional purchase is required to take care of your instrument.

The not-so-perfect:
* The cap at the top of the mouthpiece is no welded perfectly centered, as you can see from the picture. It's just cosmetic and doesn't affect the sound, but some may consider it a defect and ask for an exchange. I opted not to.
* There is a little cardboard card insert in the package explaining fingerings of the different notes. Unfortunately that card is for a full size flute, which is the same fingering as the piccolo, but it shows the instrument being comprised of 3 pieces, whereas the piccolo only has 2 pieces. It could be confusing to some people, thinking their piccolo is missing a piece (you could also think from looking at the case that there should be 3 pieces). Most people buying a piccolo will have seen one before and not be concerned though.
* Just like with the flute, it comes with white gloves, which is a nice touch, but are not big enough for my hands or my son's.

In summary:
There are two kinds of piccolo players: the "chairs" in their orchestra that are meant to be an expert at the instrument, and may choose to go with a brand-name semi-professional instrument, and there is the casual player, or the marching band player that need an instrument that will get the job done without breaking the bank, without investing too much in their instrument. This Eastar piccolo is perfect for this second type of player.
I think few kids start with the piccolo, most start with a regular flute, but this would also be a great choice for a beginner (maybe with small hands).
In my opinion, every flute player should also own and play a piccolo, and at this price, there is no reason not to!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Value Piccolo
Reviewed in the United States on May 15, 2024
I bought the ABS piccolo to replace my defective Eastrock ABS piccolo. So far the Eastar one is better quality, has a better tone although the intonation slightly wants to lay really sharp or flat on certain notes. This is a great piccolo for the value. Definitely worth buying as a beginner, intermediate player or just for leisure playing without breaking the bank. Came with many accessories. The case is better than the Eastrock as well as there’s a separate pocket to store accessories on the front of the piccolo case which is a nice added touch. Definitely recommend this!

Edit (November 2024): my review still stands months later. Piccolo has had 0 issues and sounds pretty decent albeit its cheap price tag compared to more intermediate and professional piccolos. Does a nice job. Intonation can be a bit tricky at times but a tuner does help. Overall I played this many times including a rehearsal where I played 2nd flute and piccolo in Tchaikovsky Symphony 1. I’m a bassoonist but I dabble in all the wind instruments. I also played this exact piccolo in Stars and Stripes and it sounded pretty good. Overall my 5 star review from months earlier does still stand! So happy about it

I got a piccolo because I’ve played flute for the last seven years and wanted to try piccolo for college when I’m marching, and I wanted to get a head start with it over the summer instead of starting at the beginning of the season. it’s beautiful, the case is nice and the piccolo itself is very nice looking. As you can see in the third picture it’s also up to pretty good specs in terms of tuning for the head joint. Something odd I noticed though is the random space in the case, if you look at the first picture it looks like there’s another holder for the head joint, but it doesn’t fit. Not to mention the other two random spots, one is like a rectangle and the other is like a circle, I have no idea what would even go in there, but they’re there. ????????‍♀️ Another thing I noticed is that the body doesn’t look like it fits very well in the case, which I’ve tried configuring it all different ways but nothing fits as good as how it is in the pictures. If you look in the last picture the left side sits down more than the right side. Idk why But it’s just very odd to me. As far as playing goes, this is my first pic so take it with a grain of salt, it is kind of hard, it requires a lot more air than a flute which I already knew, But hitting the note, and then making that note sound good or two very different things here. In the end this could be normal and I’m just not used to it, but I say you get your moneys worth, especially for the price. If you look at any other piccolo Especially ones of namebrand like Yamaha, they can run for quadruple the price, so I don’t expect it to be the easiest place Because of that. That being said if you’re looking to try something new its pretty good. Also buy earplugs, It’s super loud and super high-pitched and I played with noise canceling AirPods and my ear still hurts????

I was surprised by how affordable this piccolo was and half expected it to be total crap but it looks great and sounds good. With the case included it's a definite value.
