What an axe! Congratulations Blakkheim!
But where's the Wacken-news gone? Can't find them.

 

[Master_Debater]

Everyone on Blabbermouth seems to think that the guitar name is Nazi-related "SS-88", you know?

Interesting theory...... kooks. Good site though.

 

[Khayman666]

Everyone on Blabbermouth should see the FAQ on the ES website:

1. What does SS-88 mean?

During my trip to the Wacken Open Air in Germany, some people assumed the "SS" in "SS-88" meant something fascist or racist. THIS IS NOT THE CASE! SS-88 stands for "San Salvador 1988" this was the place and year I came up with the design. The name of the company ES Guitars stands for "El Salvador Guitars", rather than putting my last name on the guitar like most companies I put the name of the country where I grew up.

 

[Master_Debater]

ohhhhhhh that makes sense.... I'll post it there now.

Yeah, the whole SS being Nazi, and the "88" meaning H.H. alph-numerically (hail hitler) was a theory they had.

"...exists only in a 1/1 edition...." Pity for you Jinn .

 

[Feicht]

SS-88 is of course a Nazi reference. Of course this doesn't mean that the builder and Anders are Nazis, but the name is obviously chosen to attract some attention. It is like putting Iron Cross or SS inlays to your guitar. It sure looks cool and attracts some attention.

You must be your village idiot.

SS-88 means:

San Salvador 1988

Do I need to use even more simplistic language?

And I guess that Alexi is a finnish archer because his ESP model is called an Arrow.

Dumbass.

Actually, it's a bit of a stretch, but SS-88 COULD be a Nazi reference as well.

 

[Lord_AgathoN]

yeah and our beloved bloodbath play nsbm ^^

but it's not and has been proven on this thread and on the site by the designer as well.
