Will the "Gibson" bone saddle from Allparts...
Fit my J-15. I adjusted the saddle height a little too much Any suggestions from other suppliers will be appreciated. I'll probably eventually go with a colossi, but I'd like to play around a little with the height first.
Thanks! https://www.allparts.com/BS-0267-000...ns_p_5114.html

If the dimensions of the new saddle match (or can be made to match) the slot, then it will fit.

Expect to have to adjust any saddle to make it fit--in width, length, and height. The only thing you can't properly adjust is when one if its dimensions is too small. If you are not comfortable with doing this, take it to a good tech.

The reason nobody answered your question is nobody knows the answer. It's as Howard said... a saddle must fit exactly, and unless it's specifically made for your slot that is unlikely. The only way to know for sure, is buy it and try it or buy one that's too big and reduce it to fit.

Part of Luthiery is making bits fit.
Any of the shelf product unless supplied by the manufacturer is likely not to fit. Having an oversize pre-shaped Saddle or Nut can be advantageous for a Guitar Tech to then tweak it to dimension. Most Luthiers will use the raw product and shape it up, most Guitar techs will tweak a pre-shaped one. Steve
