diablo175 Posted June 1, 2014 Author Share Posted June 1, 2014 FWAM is just a sound effect homage to the beloved comic books of my youth. Along the lines of the POW and ZOWIE you'd have seen/heard on the Adam West Batman series back in the late 60's, early 70's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FGJ Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 Great googly-moogly, Bat-Man! Thems are some fancy inlays! (er, I still pickup an occasional comic, what with getting free pro-passes to the San Diego Con every year.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommy p Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 I always liked Don Martin's sounds in Mad, but I guess an inlay that said "sklerp" or "splort" wouldn't be as cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HSB0531 Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 Those inlays are COOL!!!I never thought to do anything other than the traditional fret markers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This will surely reveal my depth of comic book fandom but Nightcrawler's sound effect when he teleported is BAMF! I was always partial to the sound effect accompanying Wolverine's claws popping out- SNIKT! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coolfeel Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 How much longer till you take possession of this new babe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diablo175 Posted June 1, 2014 Author Share Posted June 1, 2014 How much longer till you take possession of this new babe?Hard to say. My guess is another couple of months or so. Believe it or not, Jackson CS is not happy with the quality of the inlay material and they contacted me about other options. We're investigating those options. This could take a couple of weeks, especially if they change the inlay material. I know the body and neck aren't painted yet either- that's a month right there, given the intricacy of the design. Then there's hardware, wiring, final inspection, shipping, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Montelovesco Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 BAMF translates to BUMPF in German I am sorry - no. The sounds of Nighty and Logan were/are drawn and so part of the graphics. So they couldn't be translated. BAMF and SNIKT are kind of a worldwide spoken language... :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah, the internet, serving the eternal 13 year old in each of us. In context, even! Edited to add that recently, within the last three months, I recalled the Don Martin Wonder Woman cartoon to my wife as she prepared to retire for the evening. The cartoon matched my memory precisely. I shall call this post, "How not to woo the ladies." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
