I wrapped a 120 1MH-spinning, and I love it. Very very similar to the gsb120 1M. Almost identical in action. The SSU is a lighter stick with the same bang, a little softer. I would say the sweet spot is around 3.5..
these 2 rods are in my top 3 rotation....

the SSU120MH has about the same lure rating as a 1205, with being to throw on the lower end better than a 1205. i've thrown up to 5 w/ my MH, but you start to lob the rob rather than truely cast it. ideal top end is about 4. it'll throw 2.5-3.5 all day long. the M is a little softer and maybe more ideal for pencils. it's about the same power as a GSB1201L, but a little faster in action. it'll handle 3, but not too much more than that. the L is a soft rod. it's softer than the GSB1201L. i wouldnt push that one much more than 2-2.5 oz. the SSU1081M is one sweet rod. i've thrown 3oz with it w/o a problem.
