@merrick9991 For the most part, it's the A minor shape in Eb tuning. There's some changes in the part around :12 though where it gets a little major for a bit though.

hey man i recently bought a second handed xiphos, exact same model as you have, and i have lot of problems tuning when i take out the locking nuts, why do you think it could be? do you think the edge III is fucked up?

[LoForIAmColby]

You might want to try tuning it up with something wedged under the floating part of the trem (I typically use the box my strings come in, or a CD case). Tune it a little flat of what you're going for, put the locking nuts on, take the wedge out, and then you can start fine tuning. If that doesn't help then you might need a truss rod adjustment or maybe some repairs.

@LoForIAmColby i'll try the string box thing, i already tried tuning it a little flat the day i got it, and it worked almost perfectly, but for some reason I tried again and i couldn't get it even close to being tuned, it detuned in a different amount each time i tightened the locking nuts, and when loosened it, it got into a different tuning it was before tightening them, do you think i should return it to the store?

[LoForIAmColby]

That almost sounds like some sort of tremolo problem. You might want to get a repairman to check it out.

Dude i know this is a year late but you may need to go look up more videos on how to tune and edge III. Remember that there has to be a balance between the spring tension in the back and how tight your tuners are. It's all about balance, you can't tighten one with out affecting the other. You may need to loosen the spring tension.
