Hi. Actually many people change the headjoint, although there are lots of people who are very happy with the original one. Anyway, that is why there exist manufacturers which produce only headjoints, e.g., Ian McLauchlan, J. R. Lafin, Drelinger, Tomasi, and Faulisi. And many flute makers sell headjoints separately, and separate headjoints (both new and second-hand) are being sold at flute shops. As for me, I have two c-flutes: I am using the one (made in early 1980s) with the original headjoint, but I have changed the headjoint of the other (made in the US) to Pearl PHN-3, which is not well-known but a very nice one.
Good luck with your flute.

A different headjoint can make a huge difference. You might love or hate the same flute with different headjoints. I recommend trying as many as you can and finding the best match. Good luck!
