Boar brush question?

what is the difference between the Semogue 1305 boar brush and the Omega Professional Boar brush for any types of soaps, if there is any difference feedback greatly appreciated so I can place my order today. Thanks
I had an Omega 49 and now have a Semogue 1305. The Omega's loft was a bit much for me and I felt that the brush was a bit floppy (for a boar) as a consequence. I love my Semogue. The loft is just right and the brush is nicely packed.
If you want a super backed boar, see if you can fine a Boreal 976. Mine is really starting to break in nicely. I almost traded it away a couple of weeks ago...so glad that I didn't.

How about some photos?
Well, I don't have the Omega anymore...it was just too floppy for me.
But here is a pic. From left to right: Boreal 976, Rooney 1/2 Super and Semogue 1305.
I sure like the Semogue 1305
Yeah. It is a very nice brush. So is the Boreal, though....
I'm the one Spivey almost traded his Boreal to! I've used the 976 and the Semogue 1305. 976 much denser a much more backbone. That being said, the 1305 is a wonderful brush. I am truly delighted with mine. I've used the Omega 31xxxx line, very,very good, but I think the others have the edge.
Care to compare the Semogue 1305 to Vulfix boar brushes? I'm keen to try a boar brush, but don't have the coin for more than one at this point.
The Semogue is pretty darn awesome.
Alright, so are there any US vendors for Semogue? The best prices I found seem to be overseas.

Gary at Shoe Box is clearing out the 323's.. which may have a similar knot to the 976.
Under $21, shipped. Outstanding. Thanks for the heads-up!
