The tremol-no is probably a good solution, but the guy just wants it down temporarily...not full time.

So I think blocking may be the way to go if he doesn't plan on going back and forth often, because $65 is quite a bit if you are only using its main feature once.

Though I have been thinking of getting one for my UV so I can tune to drop A..

drow is right, but... the vids convinced me. has anyone in the uk bought one off all parts? how much did it cost for delivery and how long did it take?

I used a metal plate to lock one of my JS's trims down, dont move an inch and costed $0. Broke a string and dont go out of tune. I have a Trem-no on my other JS and it isnt as stable and my other setup.
