Can anyone else recommend a good COMFORTABLE GP?

As title really.
And can you get GPs that are better for doing flatwork in as the horse doesn't jump much at all.
 
I will probably get slated for this but my bates caprilli gp is the comfiest saddle I have ever sat in. It's lovely for flatwork (I also do very little jumping but it is fine for the little I do) Everyone that has sat on or seen my saddle comments on how comfortable it is or looks. The only downside is that although it has a changeable gullet and "should be a one saddle fits all" my lad has changed shape recently and it now doesn't sit quite right on him any more :-( I have a saddler coming out on Tues and I'm expecting to have my beloved saddle up for sale on Wednesday.
 
If your not adverse to a Synthetic saddle then i found the Thorowgood saddles very comfy and spent many a long hack or hard lesson on one.
I have had both a T4 and a T6 and both fitted the horse and my bum well.
 
My Ideal VSD is mega comfy, I love it! And it's slightly straighter cut than a normal GP, so more geared to those who do flatwork but want to do a bit of jumping.
