    Well, actually, I was doing a search on Callaham trem blocks and came across multiple discussions on the topic right here. Then I got totally engulfed in reading tons of threads and found that this would be a place to gain and share a lot of information.

    I really like your dolphinstreet.com website, Ive gotten bunches of great tips and info there.
