Interesting side note - you can order WIlkinson trems from the factory with solid steel blocks as an option now but it adds about 175% to the standard steel block trem price.

I had planned to switch over to the solid steel blocks but hit the brakes when I found out the price! I'd have to sell them for £60 at least and I figured at that price folks may as well get a hand machined block made here in the UK if the standard steel block isn't doing it for them.
I'm pretty sure you can specify the block for the distressed models - all the blocks on the WV line are interchangeable I think. However I've never looked into stocking them - at one time I was ageing them myself but it's too time consuming to be profitable (although I suspect I'm a bit anal in my ageing process - fuming whole thing with muriatic acid fumes will get it done much quicker but I don't particularly care for the results).
