They look beautiful. Can't wait for some reviews.

Interesting, and as Neo Bri notes, they surely are attractive. I am a bit surprised at the small bore size of most of the trombones. Are these sizes more common in Europe?

German style trombones generally have smaller slide bores and large bells. Gives them a very different sound from an American style trombone. I'm surprised they ditched the "snake" decorations common on these types of instruments.

A real soprano trombone with a valve? Alto in F with a valve? 3 different contra models with tuning easily extended to F/C/A? 4-valve Eb bass trumpet with D extension?

I love what I see. Wish there was a price list.

I had have to pay for my Voigt alto around 2300 Euro, its not more as for a Bach alto.
Helmut Voigt is much cheaper then Thein or other comparable german brands
