The saddle on mine measures 2 7/8" long by 1/8" wide.
To see if the neck angle is ok, place a straight edge (ruler) down the middle of the fretboard on top of the frets. If the neck angle is good, the straight edge should line up with the top of the wooden bridge. If it strikes the bridge too much below the top, you will have a high action on the guitar, which will make playing more difficult.
