Excellent for daily journaling
I use this every day for my morning pages. The medium nib provides a nice line width that isn't too broad. It dries relatively quickly on standard paper, which prevents smudging.

Great value, smooth writer
For the price, you really cannot beat the quality. It feels substantial in the hand and the ink flow is consistent. I deducted one star only because the cap can be a bit tight to remove initially.

Good gift option
Purchased this as a gift for a friend who loves stationery. The gift box presentation is elegant. She loves the soft fine nib option for detailed note-taking.

Authentic Japanese quality
This is definitely an authentic Pilot pen imported from Japan. The packaging was pristine, and the pen came with both a cartridge and a converter. It writes beautifully right out of the box.

Smooth and reliable
After years of using ballpoints, switching to this fountain pen was a game changer. The stainless steel nib has just the right amount of feedback. Very happy with this purchase.

Perfect starter pen for my daughter
Bought this for my daughter who is getting into calligraphy. The fine nib writes smoothly without skipping, and the grip section is very comfortable for long writing sessions. Highly recommend for students.
Q: What is the difference between the 78G and 78G+?
A: The 78G+ is the updated version featuring a slightly improved grip section texture and a more modern clip design compared to the original 78G.
Q: Does this pen come with ink included?
A: Yes, the package includes one blue-black ink cartridge and a CON-40 converter so you can use bottled ink immediately.
Q: Can I use this for left-handed writing?
A: Absolutely. The stainless steel nib writes smoothly in multiple directions, making it suitable for both left-handed and right-handed users.
Q: How do I clean this pen?
A: You can clean it by flushing the nib section and converter with cool water until the water runs clear. Let it air dry completely before refilling.
Q: Is the nib interchangeable with other Pilot pens?
A: The nib unit on the FP-78G+ is removable, but it is specifically designed for this model series and may not fit all other Pilot fountain pens perfectly.
