I realize this isn't a new topic, but I searched in vain for a prior one. I received one of Jem's Simple Piccolos a few weeks back. This past weekend was the first time I really had a chance to play it. It's terrific! It plays well and it's just fun to play. And, of course, the price is right.
I highly recommend it.

should'a bought at least two
Picture a bright blue ball just spinning, spinning free
It's dizzying, the possibilities. Ashes, Ashes all fall down.

Usually someone adds their review to one of his Commercial Posts (CP:), last of which was in August. Previous was June.

Re: Jem Hammond's Simple Piccolo
Hi sfwhistle! Thanks for your feedback! I'm delighted you're happy. The ideal place to post your comment would, as Kevin wrote, usually have been here: New/Updated CP (August 2012) - Simple PVC Piccolos. However, as I'm currently sold out, maybe it's fortuitously better that you didn't bump that thread! Not sure when I'll get at making some more!
Cheers,
Jem

Re: Jem Hammond's Simple Piccolo
Finally had a short go on one that belonged to Mr. Krell yesterday.
Not that I was surprised, but I was surprised. It's a great little piece of kit that.

I'm with Aanvil on this, we both had a chance to put said piccolo through its paces and I was very impressed.

Thanks, Peri and Michael. I really appreciate your appreciation!

Re: Jem Hammond's Simple Piccolo
I have one of Jem's piccolos lying on my computer desk. It appears to be rather comfortable between the mouse and the Susato whistle. The only complaint that I have about the piccolo, though, is that it does seem to collect dust rather badly. Jem, I suspect that you will address that issue in your new model.

Re: Jem Hammond's Simple Piccolo
I'm surprised that no one has put one on eBay with a Buy-It-Now price of $2,107...
Best wishes.
