Okay.
Unlock the nut. Make the fine tuners be all even at half way up. Tune the guitar regularly. Lock the nut. Then tune it back into tune with the fine tuners.

I'd assume he has one.
But, I just bet your fine tuners are off (all the way up or all the way down) and you cant adjust them.

or maybe its an intonation problem...
a) restring your guitar
b) get your neck checked

Yeah, the intonation might be fucked.
I'd just get it checked out by a pro and see what the problem is.

yea, i think the strings are most likely to be the problem since i strung the guitar myself, and thats the first ever time i've done it. cant be a good thing.
im just gonna take it to my local shop and get it set up properly, get it checked over and then the strings fitted but a pro.
just to make sure
