Dear Fountain Pen Network,

 

I wanted to start a thread about the Diamine Music Set because there are so few writing sample pictures of it on the internet and I wanted to put some out there. My friend just bought the set from the wonderful La Couronne du Comte and generously gave me samples of each of them, and so far I am hugely impressed. I'm attaching pictures of the Strauss ink, which I loaded up in my red Pilot Falcon with a soft medium nib. The paper is a Seven Seas Tomoe River journal. I apologize for the low lighting!

 

I think this ink is absolutely stunning, and obviously on this paper the shading is outstanding. There is even a hint of sheen on areas with a lot of ink laid down. I would love to hear what you think of it or if you have any pictures of your own of the Diamine Music Set!

 

Thanks so much,

 

Julia

Dear Fountain Pen Network,

I understand this is your first post... so Welcome... If you google "Diamine Music set Fountain Pen Network" you will find countless threads with writing samples.

 

... And I do mean countless...

Nice start, and welcome too!

An even better way to do a search here is use the advanced technique = the gear-shaped symbol to the far right on the menu bar containing Search....

... That could even lead you to something like this....

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
