[RC] Specialized Saddle Question - Claire Nystrom

I have a friend that is having a very difficult time trying to find a
saddle for her horse.  He has very high withers and atrophy across the
topline, i.e. prominent spine, as he is a bit underweight.  He is a 32
yo. retired police horse and I think that his weight is due to his
age.  Anyhow, I was looking at the Specialized Saddle website and this
seems like it could be a good option.  I was just wondering if anyone
had used this type of saddle with success on this type of horse. 
Also, are the shims difficult to adjust?  My friend would be
interested in the raised endurance pommel, but no horn-- the
Trailmaster model I believe.  I'd also be open to hearing of other
types of saddles that might work for this type of horse (not terribly
expensive though, as budget is a limiting factor).

Thanks, 
Carol
