Vintage Pilot Custom K Music
​
Here's a vintage Pilot Custom K-series with a music nib that I got recently. Initially I didn't like the body of this pen, but after using it for quite some time I'm starting to enjoy it more. The nib writes smoothly with a broad and wet line. You can press on it slightly to get an even broader line, but I won't recommend it. The ink flow is so good, it even bleeds through Rodia 80g paper.
The exact model of the pen is Pilot KI-500RS-B. It's a more "interesting" version of a regular resin body Pilot Custom K (K-500RS-B). It came with four nibs to choose from (Coarse, Soft, Music and Falcon).
Fingernail-like nibs are my favorite, so I might get the remaining two nibs. Might as well get a new fancy pen body, but who knows. After all these pens are quite hard to come by.
