Made from ABS resin for enhanced durability
An important aspect to consider when purchasing a student piccolo is durability. After all, it has to survive the bumps and bruises it will surely encounter as it travels with your aspiring musician from school and back. Plus, if it’s used for outdoor performances, you’ll want to make sure it can withstand the occasional run-in with inclement weather. For those reasons, Jupiter constructed the JPC1000’s body from robust matte ABS resin. Unlike wood, ABS resin is impervious to damage from fluctuating temperatures and humidity, and is resilient against normal wear and tear. Yet, ABS resin has a look and sound reminiscent of wood, with a full-bodied tone and a pleasing top end.
Jupiter: guaranteed through graduation
A staple in classrooms everywhere, Jupiter band instruments are beloved by music teachers for good reason. Since 1980, the company has built high-quality band instruments for students of every development level. Innovations such as the Waveline flute headjoint and the patented Ergonomic trombone are just two examples of the company’s player-centered design philosophy. Each Jupiter instrument is inspected for quality throughout the manufacturing process, ensuring that it can endure bumps and bruises as easily as it can navigate technical passages. Sweetwater believes that every student should have access to the rich musical culture that unites us all. And with Jupiter’s player-first focus, anyone is welcome to embark upon an exciting and fulfilling musical journey through high school graduation and beyond.
