My Bach 184G (gold brass bell) cornet just returned from Artistic Engraving. What a fantastic job! These pics don't really do it justice, but you get the idea. I had Sherry do the "Bach Stradivarius Deluxe" design, which runs the entire length of the bell (on a shepherds crook, it even curls down the backbow). Beautiful detail, and a fast turnaround - it really is "Artistic Engraving"! This cornet is the best playing horn I've ever owned, and I thought it deserved a little extra personality - definitely old school now.
