can anyone recommend a adjustable gullet saddle suitable for a cob? im currently looking for a t4 or t6 thorowgood cob but doesnt seem to be any in 17.5 just 17! (please pm if you have one for sale!)

so looking for other possibilites, this will be a 2nd saddle for cob to use for jumping and shows as i have treeless for hacking, so dont want to spend a fortune
 
I have a Saddle Company Cob saddle. They don't come up often 2nd hand and aren't the cheapest bit of kit around (approx £400) when they do come up but they are worth the money. I searched for months and eventually ended up having one made to template for me - a great investment in my eyes as my cob is still maturing and I went through 4 saddles in 18 months!
Not sure where you are but there a couple of wide saddles advertised on the Welland Valley Feeds website (Leicestershire).
 
I have a GFS genesis, which uses wintec gullets - currently using the white one - and it's brilliant :)

I tried every thorowgood going to fit the boy, and they just didn't, not even the cob ones. totally the wrong shape, lifted at the back or just didn't "sit right".

i also have a Barefoot which I love, and i don't have to worry about him changing shape - but it's only good for hacking.
