MAX BENZ 18" monoflap dressage saddle, colour is black. Lovely comfortable saddle which is very nice to ride in. Made in Germany the leather is extreamly soft and lovely quality and gives a secure seat. Has a nice deep seat and a medium-wide gullet 6"- equpivelant to Wintec red/wide gullet (only reason for sale as just that bit too wide for our high withered Anglo Arab which takes a medium 5", need to use a very thick saddle pad to ride in, prefer to buy something narrower)

The saddle does have small professional repair under saddle, see photo, does not affect the saddle at all, girth points are near new. Comes with Equi-prene girth 85cm which has only been used 3 times.

Asking $470.

Hi Tanya I am not sure, as I bought the saddle this way, love it, finally got daughter to trust her mare outside of her trusty Ammo using this saddle, but just too wide for the mare, the repair is underneath and does not affect it at all.

The measurement across the front D ring to D ring is 4.5 inches

You can read review on the Max Benz (this one of the Counter Block) and this was why I chose the saddle, truly lovely to ride in, just a pity the gullet is just that bit too wide

Saddle has arrived in good condition. Many thanks. Will give feedback on eBay too. Haven't sat in it yet - can't try it on my horse till Wednesday, but have a local saddle fitter if any problem. Interesting saddle, haven't seen one like it before but you can easily tell the quality. Feels as though it needs reflocking but saddle fitter will tell me about that.

Once again, many thanks!

That is great to hear Scootafella, I really liked the saddle personally and it was nice to see daughter move onwards with her confidence in the saddle using this one, just wish it would have fit our horses properly.
