Hello & my first questions

[sharmon202]

HI, I got a fountain pen in November and am hooked. I had one many years ago but just was not up to the maintenance, now I really like that part as well a using them. I recently got a 1970's Pilot med nib, new/old stock. Black barrel, gold color cap. Pilot Super Quality Japan on nib. Is there a converter that I can get that would work on this? Post the cartridge goes on looks bigger/wider than what I am used to.
I have enjoyed perusing this web site and everyone's input is fantastic, I am learning a lot.
Thanks, Sandy

wouldn't a con-20 or con-50 work?

Hi Sandy,

Sorry, I don't have the info or experience with your pen to answer your question, but - hey! - it's FPG, someone will!. Welcome to the Fountain Pen Geeks forums! Smaller than the largest pen fora, larger than some, you'll find a comfortable community of pen-centric people here, with a growing body of posts, reviews, and group knowledge. Mostly, you'll find people who are enthusiastic about fountain pens, and fountain pen people.

Join in!

Regards,
Jon

Welcome! If you could post a pic of the pen, I'm sure someone can tell you the model and the appropriate converter.

Welcome Sandy. I have emailed Goulet when shopping for converters and they always sell me the correct one.
