Very different wrappers, and also a different filled blend as well. I prefer the SB #1's by a good margin right now.

Faith: you know your gonna live through the rain..
Moki,
Can you actually taste a difference..>>?? I have tried both and thought the taste was very similar, almost identical. I was also under the assumption that they had the same wrapper and filler and that the only difference was a size thing. Maybe if I had known they were different I would have tasted a difference, or maybe my noob-ness to SB wouldnt have known the difference..heheheheh
thanks

No... very different wrapper. They are both sumatran seed, but the #1 is shade grown, and the #2 is sun grown (you can tell the difference by looking at the wrappers side by side)... they were also grown at different times, the wrapper from the #1's was all used up in its production.

O.K., I smoked a #1 tonight. I would say that it is a somewhat weak burn. The cigar did stay lit but, I did
not get the volume of smoke I would like. This was my first one, and I'd say that it was barely med in flavor.
There was a fair amount of body. I typically do not judge a cigar after only smoking one, so I will smoke a few more. I would say that if I smoked it slower, it would go out. The cigar was stored in my dryest humidor which is about 63 to 65 rh. I'll smoke a #2 Tomorrow.
edit to clarify
