My Nirschl, which was built in 1994, has elaborate engraving around the "Meister Walter Nirschl" logo.

I have the 4/4, I think it's maybe 10yrs old. The engraving on mine is only block text, no ornamentation. the rest of the horn looks exactly the same, with the minor exception that the ferrules on mine are more flat.

I recently saw a Nirschl euphonium which had been ordered by a well know soloist. That had really beautiful engravings as well as gold plated highlights. It looked stunning!

Anybody else notice that he seems to be offering a 3+1 F tuba? I thought that was a little strange.

Anyone else having trouble with the links on this site? I click through to the Instrumente and then try to click any of the four links and nothing happens.

I got the impression that the site was still under construction. The links did not work for me either!

While it's still under construction, I still wasn't able to see any engravings that the other posters were talking about. I have seen them on Floyd Cooley's website but not on this one.
