Tramol pen update.

As title states. It seems Tramol has brought back the Tramol Frosted Acrylic negative pressure fountain pen on AliExpress. So I decided to press the purchase since I missed out last time it was available. It also seems they have a new ebonite / hard rubber pen. 

 

Also are the nibs decent or should I switch it out for another nib once I receive it?

$36 is less that it was formerly—I think I paid around $45? I can’t remember what nib was in the pen, but I don’t think it was that blank black nib shown. It either came with a black Bock or that’s what I put in it.

Yes, I'm intrigued, but do I really need a new FP today? I'm still thinking about it...

Just got the pen yesterday. It seems to be jowo. Has jowo feed and is juicy. Will be seeing if the pen will accept lemon mg medium today.

I think it is either a non modified asvine nib. But seems bock housing unit can be swapped with it. But oddly jowo and bock nibs are to wide. Will have to see about a Schmidt nib by buying one.
