Pentel Twist-Erase III
Who doesn’t respect a name with III at the end of it?! My go to pencil ALWAYS. So good that when anyone tries it they immediately take a picture and want one. Yup. That good. When we performed with Paul Watkins shortly after he joined the Emerson Quartet, he leaned over to borrow my pencil and with wonderment and awe was reluctant to give it back. I purchased a set and encapsulated them in a Montblanc box and sent them along. The thicker 0.7mm lead makes it great to write on music with and visible under the bright lights. They even have some pink ones
