Thanks a lot man.
Well a robusto is going to be around 50-52 ring guage and the little Special G is probably around 46 at the widest part of the body. Also, I don't care for the Special G maduro, they do not taste like the Short Story at all. Try a natural Special G. At around $2.50 you can't go wrong.
