60 degree diamond vs MSQC Rhombus template

Is there a difference in a 'typical' 60 degree ruler and what MSQC calls a Rhombus template?
I love the quilts from Jaybird Quilts but wonder which ruler is the best investment. Opinions? Thanks!

Would someone please check this out? As pages in a thread increase to 20+ this has been a helpful tool. But, since the change in the website, it no longer works.
