Miles Davis Special Edition Collection
MILES DAVIS - Great Characters Edition
This Great Characters Edition honors one of the most revolutionary and influential jazz musicians of all time - Miles Dewey Davis. He was not only a trumpeter with an outstanding sound but pioneered virtually every phase of the evolution of post-WWII American jazz, with the engraved patterns on the pen body representative of these diverse movements: eg. Be-bop; Cool Jazz; Hard Bop; Modal Jazz; and Jazz Fusion. The overall shape of the writing instruments is inspired by the trumpet, emphasized through the trumpet keys on the clip. The cone at the barrel end is in blue to remind us of *Kind of Blue*, considered by many as the greatest jazz album of all times, with the shape of the cone inspired by the special "Heim" mouthpiece he used to play! The cap ring with its 2006 engraving reminds us of the year of his induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. To top it all off, the nib is a gorgeous 14kt solid gold, rhodium-coated piece with an engraving of his famous silhouette. The fountain pen is piston fill.
Only 1926 Platinum coated Miles Davis will be produced.
