    Default Well...The Almighty 1305 Arrived!

    Hi everyone! Well I finally got my Semogue 1305 this morning. I'm pretty sure its the new model because the paint job looks magnificent. I ordered the brush exactly two weeks ago and I now have it. I had to post something because I was excited. You guys have a great day!

    Congratulations on your Semogue 1305. Give it time to break in. It will start out good and get phenomenal.

    Regarding the paint, I had one purchased for me by SWMBO for a Valentines Day gift. The paint job looks as perfect as the day I opened the box. IMHO, it's one of the coolest looking brushes.

    Great brush! I lathered with mine every day to break it in and it has proved itself to be a wonderful soap brush, definitely great to have in rotation.

    I Truly hope B&B makes a full recovery, I didn't realize how great the community was until it was gone.

    There was an improvement in the painting somewhat recently; most anything ordered in recent time has been improved greatly over the originals (which did have some chipping issues). In either case, the business end of the brush makes it a benchmark boar.

    I have the Semogue Owner's Club brush (boar), and I absolutely love it. My only other brush is the Semogue 2010 LE. The 2010 LE is a great brush, but little by little I am liking the SOC more. I now have my eye on the 1305, but I'm scared the LE might not see any action

    I have 2 badgers and the 1305. They all work fantastic but I adore the 1305.

    Beautiful brush.
