I currently have a MW Niedersuss that is fairly new and comfortable and in good shape, but just too wide for Guinness. I am interested in either a narrower version of the same saddle or an Amerigo Vega dressage in Medium, size 17?

A dressage saddle is a type of English saddle in which the rider sits in deep seats with flaps that are cut straight to help the rider stay closely connected to the horse. In dressage, close contact with the animal is important so that the rider can give the horse precise directions. Although saddles may look similar to the untrained eye, there are different types of English saddles, each serving its own purpose. On the dressage saddle, the rider sits upright and the legs are kept fairly straight. The flags are longer on dressage saddles to accommodate this. In dressage, the knees have no need to go forward, so the rider can sit up straight and not worry about leaning towards the horse, like he might when jumping. The dressage saddles are placed towards the base of the animal's neck to keep the center of gravity. breast collars |

Asking because it's very different from the Niedersuss, from tree to seat balance. |
