Here is some information about this usage:

肉头是指音色的丰满度。

There are two meanings of 肉。1，"肉"是指"食用肉"，比方说"肉圆meatball"，（中国又叫＂红烧狮子头＂，或者＂红烧刘欢＂:）2，肉又指"脂肪fat"，比方说"一身膘肉chubby，满脸横肉，脸无四两肉"。丝竹俚语肉头的"头"，可以理解为the top layer. The top layer of the meat, that would be " fat".＂有肉头＂means "has some fat, thickness and voluptuous.

Thus, in this special usage referring to instrumental musical sound, 肉頭 could be translated into English something like "robust," "meaty," "full-bodied," etc.
