I used this to black out my Jazz Bass™ fingerboard. After trying several different types of inks as recommended by different guitar and bass sites, this is the one that actually worked for me. As you can see the board is a beautiful deep black, as it should be.

I wanted to try out stick n poke tattooing and not spend a lot of cash. I'm happy with the results so far with this ink. It is super BLACK! It's great to add depth back into faded older tattoos as well versus dropping money at the shop for touch-up work. My only complaint is that it is hard to pour from the container into smaller ink cups. An eyedropper would probably help.

A Good Quick-drying Black Ink, Maybe Too Fast?

First off, I like the shape of the container. It has a wide base and narrower opening, so clumsy me is less likely to accidentally knock it over than the Liquitex.
Both inks deliver a true black, as you can seen in my photos for comparison. the cupcake was inked with Speedball Super-black and the Avocado with Liquitex Professional Acrylic Ink
Both deliver a nice line and the Speedball black seems to dry a little faster than the Liquitex, however, therein lies the problem, and hence the loss of a half star in my rating.
When drawing with a fine nib pen, pausing to ponder your next line or even to answer someone's yes or now question causes the ink to stop flowing. Clean the nib, re-dip and continue was the only solution I could find. Not even trying to get it flowing on a scrap piece of paper would work.
The second loss of a half star came with the lid of the container. The ink comes sealed with a paper seal inside a plastic lid, similar to most bottled medications. You have to tear off the seal and I suspect, keep it as a gasket for the lid, however, mine tore, so I tossed it, leaving only the plastic lid. Yes it seals, but it also glues the lid to the bottle. I'm not feeble but it is VERY difficult to open the container after a few days of inactivity, adding to the fact that you end up with ink on your hands.
I like this product. I like that it flows freely and I can get incredibly thin lines, but I'd recommend with my notes from above... maybe someone can think of a better way to seal the container? In my opinion, Speedball should have included a separate gasket in the lid to ensure a tight seal.
