3776 as test for Nakaya?

[mnempnix]

Simple question - would a (relatively) cheap and readily available 3776 be a good way to see if a Nakaya would suit me? Similarly, is a President a good approximation of an Izumo or does the nib work and tuning render these flagship pens unrecognisable from their cheaper siblings?

FYI I'm interested in a broad or western medium equivalent.

Thanks for your insights!
