I'm sorry but I don't know how to say in english the "blocks" that often are installed on the headstock of a guitar. Often they are two. They stretched down the D and G strings (the first one) and the B and E strings (the second one).
Thanx for your help!

Oh ! La France , rien a voir avec l'Espagne à ce que je comprend StephenMadrid !!!!!

I've always called them "string trees" and my repair guy never laughs at me.
Of course, he may just be polite.
YMMV

Cheers

Yep...String Trees. That's what Fender call them, so I'd go with that.
