Hi, I own a USA Highway One tele and have been thinking of purchasing either a Highway 1 Strat or one of the mexican models for a variety of tone. Unfortunately my lack of finance has made me look elsewhere. I have just bought a 2005 Squier Standard Stratocaster and I am amazed by the quality, feel and tone. Only problem is the trem block is broken (trem arm screw thread broken off half way down. This has the two point trem not the normal multi screw attachment. Does anyone know where I can purchase a trem block like this new or used (none on ebay). I have a couple of trem blocks taken from other squiers but these are slightly different and will not match up with the bridge. Finally I used to own a Mex 50's strat and this squier seems to be far superior in every way. Have I got this wrong or do others agree ? and was £55 a bargain ?

ya replacement blocks arnt as easy to come buy for the squiers as the body is slightly thinner than the normal strats so the block sticks out the bak... you can try a brand called mightey mite. got some of their stuff and it does the job...
