Very nice, how do you like the Rockinger Black Box? Is there any vendors that sell it in the states?

I like it a lot, it's only sold in Germany but this guy on eBay sells them worldwide (the instructions are all in German!) It's just like any other trem blocker but the only one I've seen where the tip that stops the block comes padded (other brands either have it straight metal making a loud clack or an adhesive that could easily come off)

It doesn't let you pull up, maybe a little but my D Tuna barely clears the mirror top so it may let you, but I was able to adjust just the Black box to adjust intonation which was really nice. And the best part is that since it's held in my 2 screws once I buy myself a to mounted Floyd guitar I simple switch out the D-Tuna, unscrew the 2 screws and it's back to being a floating guitar and no one is none the wiser

If you need something to block your trem permanently or temporarily this little thing is pretty decent
 
cool looking guitar, i always liked it.
i was there when they made the video for S.O.S.
they filmed 2 different days at alpine valley.
