Hi Felix, I currently play a 'small letter' Bach 1 1/4C, which I bought around 6 months ago. I've never played an old Bach 1 1/4C. but I can say that it works fine for me. I also have a couple of 7Cs which have bigger lettering; and quite honestly, the quality and design seems to be exactly the same.

Older stamped (small) lettering indicates it was handmade. Small or large letters (laser engraved) are lathed on the same machines. Large letters were simply not cosmetically pleasing, so they changed it.
