guitar bridge

[Les Paul]

guys. im kinda nooby to guitar bridges

i have a standard strat with standard tremolo bridge
it only has 2 springs underneath

problem is

last week, i put on a 0.10 gauge strings on my guitar..
then when i get the strings on tune, the guitar bridge would suddenly go up..

should i add more springs?
if so, where can i buy those springs? sorry for the nooby question..

or maybe an alternative could be blocking the tremolo block... would it work? since i don't use the tremolo often... sort of a cheap hardtail approach..

kelangan i set up pa yan... di pwede basta magpalit ka ng gauge ng strings... ano ba string gauge mo dati?

[jinno]

a standard stratocaster has 3 springs.... kung .010s ang gauge mo, it should have at least 3. you can purchase one at rj, audiophile , jb, lazer.....

all my strats have 5 springs... medyo heavy kasi ako mag gauge .011s or kung may stock, .012s...

kung dehins ka naman gumagamit ng tremolo that often, i suggest punuin mo ng springs yan... less hasel pa....

I bought some in audiophile pioneer, 50 pesos each.
