That's good man!!
Can you pls show the url of the product? does it have 2 1/16 E-E spacing? Is it 2-point AKA pivot AKA fulcrum type?

PS
why did you use all 4 springs? I think 3 should be enough to keep the thing "floating" when fitted with 0.09's strings. Do you like a "blocked" tremolo configuration?
For some unknown reason, i would think that the heavy brass/steel block would work better when not disabled due to added springs/tighter screwed down.

i started out that way, 5 springs tight. cuz i dint want to try and figure out the floating thing and all the adjustments. But, ya know, i changed my tune I'm floating now, and I really dont have any tuning problems, even with moderate whammage. And I dont think the adjustments are really that hard, esp if you stay with the same strings. I do rest on the bridge though, so I put in the goeldo back box: joe.emenaker.com/TremStabilizers/BackBox.html What I think is better is there isnt the 'clunk' when the whammy returns to zero, as there is with the 'decked' 5 spring set up.

another question for the fat blocks is "high mass" VS brass VS steel.
They say brass makes the tone darker, steel sharper, and .... "high mass"?

it dropped right in on my squier the block is longer than the cavity, so i just won't have that crappy guard on the back for a backup guitar (third guitar at gigs), it should be fine in terms of the saddles, i just transferred the graphtech saddles i already had i haven't put too much time playing it, but it seemed fine to me
