Hey guys, I've just received my blacktop strat and it plays amazingly!
But I'm not a big user of the whammy and have read up tremolo blocking and things I could do to stop the bridge from floating.

What's the best option so that I don't lose any tone (something I love)?

in my opinion blocking the trem improves the sound. i have my strat blocked and im happy with it

More trem blocking threads than you can shake a whammy bar at right here.
