ESP序列号总结

Possessed

从国外论坛复制而来，至于SS和Edwards是否为日产还有争议，设备版有帖子证明其为国产，最后去日本组装

ESP has 6 Custom Shops in Japan;

Technical House - serial number THxxxxxxx
Craft House - s/n CHxxxxxxx
Kiso CS - s/n Kxxxxxxx
Takada, Tokyo CS - s/n Txxxxxxx
Sado Island CS - s/n Sxxxxxxx
N(agoya?) CS - s/n Nxxxxxxx

Technical House and Craft House are walk-in guitar shops which make also custom order and artist guitars. Both located in Tokyo Central.
Technical House and Craft House 是一个制琴店，可以在那直接指定custom order或者代言人的琴，位于东京的中心地区

Kiso is a factory which makes custom order, Original Series guitars, and Custom Shop versions of Signature guitars.
Kiso是定作custom order，original系列以及CS级别的琴名款

Takada makes most of the Japanese market custom orders, but also some of the oversea customer's order guitars.
Takada制作日本市场的custom oder，以制作一些国外顾客的custom order

Sado CS is located in Sado Island and makes bolt-on guitars only.
Sado位于Sado岛，而且只制作拴接的吉他

The "N" custom shop stands for Navigator
N系列号代表Navigator

All of these shops above make guitars by hand only, with the highest quality timber and craftmanship. No CNC machines are being used.
上述所作的吉他都是手工制作，用最高的工艺，不用数控机器（我不相信 ）

Navigator guitars are basically ESP CS guitars with a different logo. They make them in all of the shops above.
Navigator等同于ESP CS，用了不同的logo，上述所有工厂都在制作



The Standard Series factory is located in the Kiso Factory. Standard Series guitars aren't made by the same team that makes the Kiso CS guitars though. SS guitars are mostly made by using CNC machines and finished and assembled by hand. The timber used is not the highest quality like on the CS guitars, but still good. I'd say the quality is in between the Edwards models and CS models. The s/n of the SS series guitars are usually starting with SS, but there's some special order runs made by retail stores which may have different serial. Like Pro Music Tools special orders = PMTxxxxxxx. These always have the "Standard Series" stamp on the back of the headstock.
外销系列位于Kiso厂子，但是制作的人不同。用数控机床制作，并且工艺不是最高的。有些厂子可以订制外销特别宽，序列号可能会被标以dealer的名字

The only way to figure out for sure where a guitar was made is the s/n. There's also the stamps, but Japanese market guitars don't usually have them. The current serial numbering system was started in 2000, so guitars made before that may not have a s/n at all, or a s/n which doesn't really give any info.
这个序列号系统开使于2000年，之前的没法确定！

我有一把 ESP USA CS的琴，序列号在琴颈插槽里。不属于上面任何一个系列。

我的是SS，官方或者说大部分的地方说法都是日产，但当初我托在日本的朋友找这把琴时问了好像是ESP官方还是什么专卖来着我不是很清楚的工作人员，说SS确实是在中国生产甚至组装再运回日本的，并且是手写logo。

请问SS是外销还是手写logo是外销？

Possessed

就我所知日本内销的都是CS的，所以SS肯定是外销的。至于logo我就不清楚了，对ESP研究没那么透

Richie★Kotzen

外销ESP不是成E-II了么

Possessed

这个是原来的，没新的今年的

版大翻译下嘛。。。
英语四级考了5次瞎蒙才过的路过。。。。

我的只有一大串数字

alexwebber

好像original系列有一些型号是S开头序号，像M7， MV等，在日本2手琴网站看到过。
另外， TH、CH 似乎很牛的样子，TH就看到过一把horzion 3的7弦，CH没看到过。

我来补充
The one above is Custom Shop, as most would know. The first letter(s) designates the Custom Shop, Original Series, Signature Series, Standard Series, and domestic market only prefixes we don't need to go into here.
For the Custom Shop and Original Series models you'll have:
K, S or T.
K = Kiso, S = Sado, T= Takada (that last one might change later this year but as it stands, that's it).
The Signature Series and Standard Series will have SS prefix.
The numbers then go like this, using the above serial number as an example:

K0340506
K = As detailed above
Two Digit Year
Week of the Year
Day of the Week - Monday=1, Tuesday=2, Wednesday=3 etc.
Number off the line that day

So K0340506 was made in Kiso shop in 2003 on the 40th week, which was around mid-October that year, and was completed on the 5th day of that week (which, if I'm correct would have been Friday the 10th, but I only worked that out quickly) and was the 6th guitar finished that day

我的没字母就一大串数字，反正是内销的，就不知那串数字蕴含多少信息

Topgear

我的也只有数字，哪位数代表什么也弄不清

metal_283

我的org mii custom 98年款，琴头后面啥都没有。没数字没印章，光溜溜。

13032423200

我的字母数字都没有  啥也没有

前缀产地说可能错不了太多。不过做工各方面都差不多，以前的k厂琴内销款12品没有logo。感觉和ss声儿没啥区别。主要还是看木材等级吧
