Jupiter JPC700 Student Piccolo - Silver-Plated | Piano Gallery, Idaho Falls
Introduction
The Jupiter JPC700 Student Piccolo stands as one of the world's most trusted student piccolos, delivering exceptional projection and brilliant tonal quality for developing musicians. This silver-plated piccolo features a cylindrical bore design that promotes effortless playing across all registers, making it ideal for high school and college band students transitioning from flute to piccolo. Built with Jupiter's renowned durability standards, the JPC700 provides the strong, penetrating sound quality essential for orchestral and marching band performances.
Product Overview
Constructed with a silver-plated nickel silver body and headjoint, the JPC700 combines professional-grade materials with student-friendly design elements that ensure both durability and exceptional sound quality. The silver plating provides brilliant tonal characteristics while protecting the underlying nickel silver from tarnishing and wear, maintaining the instrument's beauty and performance throughout years of regular use.
The cylindrical bore design allows for more free-blowing response compared to conical bore piccolos, enabling students to achieve proper intonation and dynamic control with less physical effort. This design feature makes the transition from flute embouchure to piccolo technique more manageable for developing players while providing the projection needed for ensemble work.
Silver-plated plateau keys offer reliable sealing and smooth action, allowing students to execute rapid passages and ornamentations that are fundamental to piccolo repertoire. The professional-grade key work ensures consistent response across all registers, from the challenging low notes to the brilliant high register that defines the piccolo's voice in the ensemble.

- High school band students adding piccolo as a secondary instrument
- College music majors requiring reliable piccolo for ensemble and solo work
