Great value, smooth writer

The Pilot 78G+ is a classic for a reason. It writes incredibly smoothly right out of the box. I deducted one star only because the included ink cartridges run out quickly if you write a lot, but that's expected. Highly recommend buying a converter separately.

Nice design, reliable performance

The color options are lovely, and the build quality is consistent with Pilot's reputation. It takes a little practice to get the angle right for the best flow, but once you do, it glides across the page. Great for journaling.

Excellent gift for adults and students

Purchased this as a graduation gift. The packaging is beautiful and feels premium. The pen itself is lightweight but doesn't feel cheap. The extra fine nib is perfect for those with small handwriting.

Smooth as butter

I have used many fountain pens, and this one offers exceptional performance for the price point. The cap seals tightly, so the pen doesn't dry out even if left unused for a few days. A solid choice for daily carry.

Perfect starter pen for calligraphy

I bought this set for my daughter who is interested in learning calligraphy. The fine nib writes smoothly without skipping, and the grip section is very comfortable for long writing sessions. The gift box presentation is elegant too.

Best pen in this price range

Absolutely love this pen. The stainless steel nib has just the right amount of feedback. It makes practicing handwriting actually enjoyable. The set comes with everything needed to start writing immediately.

5 FAQ

Q: Is the nib interchangeable with other Pilot pens?

A: Yes, the nib unit on the Pilot 78G+ is removable and interchangeable with other Pilot pens that use the same standard nib unit, such as the Pilot Metropolitan.

Q: Does this pen come with an ink converter or just cartridges?

A: The set includes black ink cartridges ready for immediate use. A conversion kit is also included in the box, allowing you to attach a standard international converter (sold separately) if you prefer bottled ink.

Q: What is the difference between the 78G and the 78G+?

A: The 78G+ is an updated version of the classic 78G. It features an improved feed system for more consistent ink flow and a slightly redesigned grip section for better comfort during extended writing.

Q: Can I use this pen for left-handed writing?

A: Absolutely. The stainless steel nib is not directionally ground, making it suitable for both left-handed and right-handed writers. Many lefties find the fine nib particularly forgiving.

Q: How long does the included ink cartridge typically last?

A: Usage varies based on writing frequency and nib size, but a standard CON-70 or cartridge typically lasts 2 to 4 weeks for average daily journaling or note-taking.
