Abetta Original Saddle - FQH Bars

Ride-Ready Details

The saddle that started it all. The Abetta Original sets the bar for what a synthetic saddle should be—lightweight, tough, and low-maintenance, without cutting corners on comfort or quality. Built on a Poly-Solid Quarter Horse tree with Full QH bars and a 7-inch gullet, it features a scratch-resistant 1000 denier nylon outer shell over shock-absorbing foam. Rugged enough for daily rides, yet easy to care for—just hose it down and go. No wonder it’s the best-selling synthetic saddle of all time.

This saddle also includes an 18-inch (folded) double-ply nylon off-billet and a 69-inch single-ply nylon tie strap with hole at the dee ring (72 inches total length).
