Saddles for SS38

[dramatolog]

I am thinking of change the original Saddles on my ss38. Unfortunately, the 4 decades did their thing and the strings cut into the saddles.

I was thinking of Highwood Contoured Vintage Saddles. Now the issue is I don't have any proper measuring instrument on me. Could someone help me out and direct me to the right ones?
