Default Emerald saddle width

Something I forgot to measure before I sent the guitar back - is the saddle 3/32 or 1/8 wide? Pretty sure it's 1/8 but want to be certain, as I consider options...

My x7, x10 & x20 all have .124" thick saddles.
I just received a new 1/8" thick Graph Tech Tusq saddle for my x10 and needed to sand the width down slightly.

My X20 appears to be a nominal 1/8" also.

Curious if you have decided what you are going to do (and if you are willing to share)

Nope, not decided yet...but thinking about moving my old but loved pickup system over if I do get an Emerald.

The Amazon pic that 121 linked is also the exact same one that came on the X30 as well. Hopefully the same one comes in your new custom X20
