...I personally have a Yamaha 62, but the Resona wasn't available when I bought it. That being said, I've also recut the headjoint and it no longer plays like any other Yamaha I've ever played. (I came across a Haynes piccolo that I liked that had similar headjoint measurements so I copied it)

I have an old Armstrong that was my first piccolo. It also no longer plays like any other Yamaha I've ever played.

My 62 came with the straight head and I could never really get the response and range that I wanted. I later swapped it for a Yamaha wave-style headjoint and wow, what a difference it made for me.
