Guo Classical Grenaditte Flute Headjoint, 19.8mm diameter

Our Description

This is a totally new concept in headjoint design from Geoffrey Guo, who has for some time been at the forefront of modern flute development, and is respected the world over for his extensive knowledge of the flute and its acoustics.

The Classical Headjoint offers a woody, mellow sound with an immediate response in all registers - at an incredible price.

Made from Grenaditte, a new material which has similar characteristics of density, colour, and acoustic properties to Grenadilla-wood, this headjoint is impervious to all climatic and temperature changes.

This headjoint may be fitted to any modern Boehm-style flute.

About Guo Musical Instrument Co

The Guo Musical Instruments Company had its humble beginnings in 1988. Although their initial handcrafted flutes offered only minor alterations to the original Boehm system, in 2003 the company introduced the Cermet Flute, thereby marking the beginning of what has become a devoted journey into the innovation of flute manufacture and design. This initial step, which remains a hallmark of all GMIC flutes to this day, was characterised by the exclusive use of computerised engineering for all aspects of an instrument construction and design. This allows for a level of consistency and reliability that had simply never been available by any other previous method.
