Montblanc Great Characters Jimi Hendrix Limited Edition 1942 fountain pen

In 2022, Montblanc honors one of the most celebrated musicians of the 20th century, who is widely regarded as one of the most influential electric guitarists in the history of popular music: Jimi Hendrix. Inspired by the cover of the 1968 album "Electric Ladyland," the barrel of this Limited Edition 1942 features a gradient lacquer held by a skeletonized overlay. The surface of the cap symbolizes the material of an amplifier used by Hendrix and includes a lacquer badge.

The yellow gold-coated clip is positioned at an angle and resembles the vibrato arm of an electric guitar. The Montblanc emblem on the top of the cap is made of precious resin. Another striking detail is the yellow gold-coated barrel ring, which is inspired by a guitar cable from the 1960s; it is engraved with the date of a famous Jimi Hendrix concert.

On the handmade Au 750 solid gold nib (M) is a portrait of Jimi Hendrix.
