Condition – New Haswell headjoints are handmade in the traditional way in a small workshop. They combine the classic warm wooden sound with a modern response, allowing a wide range of colours and dynamics, and giving power to the low register. This boxwood headjoint is somewhat mellow, subtle, with a lovely lyrical voice that develops with playing. We have given it our usual embouchure cut, which is fairly easy-blowing, though retaining just enough resistance to allow for long-term developments in a player’s range of timbre and colour. This is a one-off as we have no plans to make another headjoint from boxwood.
Please note that whilst these headjoints are for sale, we advise you to try them before you buy! Headjoints come in lots of shapes and sizes. It is therefore recommended for you to try the headjoint either in our testing room at All Flutes Plus or by pre-arranged trial within the comfort of your own home.
