I'm thinking on only buying rockets and amps from now on since I got my rocket.

I like how it feels very comfortable. The comb is a bit more out in the front and rounded than a special 20 and feels like it actually act like a gasket between the lips and makes a nice seal. Also they play awesome. I think they have the same reedplates as the 20. And exterior wise its rounded very comfortable also. Some people talk about the difference on the size holes, doesn't make a difference to me. Feels all the same.
