Just hung up with JJ and put my deposit down on a pro. Pretty stoked as I'm a 70's kid and Rocks was one of my first and remains one of my favorite albums. Pinball and rock n' roll were all I cared about (not a lot has changed lol).

Just an observation, I spent quite a while adjusting my levelers last night and found that a 7.1 degree playfield angle made every shot feel "right" to me. I set it up at 6.5 out of the box last week and after several adjustments 7.1, and obviously being perfectly level, made a world of difference. I can even make the orbit shots pretty consistently which were giving me fits until last night.

I admit to doing it. It doesn't help as much as I thought it would. These outlanes are just a bitch.

Agree with all Dave posted above with an emphasis on the 5 or 6 ball multiball with super ramps and a multiplier or two going. It's quite a grind for me to get 250 million plus.

I had this issue when I got mine, it was a bad node board. Stern sent me a new one after I contacted my dealer.

Edit: The sound issue is what I was referring

My apologies, mine was the CPU board as well. Luckily the replacement fixed the issue and the game has been perfect since. Also there is a small jumper from c15 to a pin just to the right that wasn’t included on the new board from Stern that I needed to use from the old board. If your backbox LEDs don’t work that’s why.

My playfield needs to be freshly waxed to get enough oomph on the shot. Not a great feeling when it doesn’t make it all the way up because if it's coming back down, it’s usually trouble. Pitch is at about 7.0.
