Hey. I'm making a list of resin/composite piccolos that have cork instead of a metal slot for the headjoint.

So far, all I know is that the Yamaha YPC-32 is a piccolo with cork.

What other brands have resin/composite piccs w/ cork?? And which ones are the better ones??

No, plastic Armstrongs do not have a cork tenon. Yamaha plastic ones do.

I have a plastic Armstrong piccolo with a cork tenon. I think it was made in the 70's. It's ok, I like the Pearl piccolo better.

I like the Pearl because it sounds like a wood piccolo but is like plastic and will never crack.
