I had a Xiphos as well. Immense guitars. I didn't have problem with Neck dive either but my 2nd "real" guitar was an NJ Beast so maybe it just seemed like nothing compared to that. Haha.

Nice! I've played a few of them at my local shop and they played nicely.

But, I don't get when people have artists sign their guitars right where their forearm goes... I'd always have them sign the back of the headstock. :2c:

On A trem guitar, get them to sign the tremolo cover and then get that finished at an automotive centre and that shit will last forever.

It sounds very nice, even nicer with my BKP.

My guitarist got the same guitar the other week. For a fucking steal of a price too, $700 or so brand new. With the d'activators it sounds amazing.

Be warned, that bridge is awful.

One of those was my first brand new guitar. My main for two years. Got the bridge blocked eventually. Other than that and necktie its amazing. So shreddy

My knife edge got really worn and wouldnt return to zero properly after a while. Other than that, it WAS a good bridge, the neckdive is a pain on this guitar though, anyone here had the strap pins moved? Did it work well?
