Quoted from Mattyk:Oh please. Everyone knows the upper playfield on WWFRR is superior lol
What about WWE! 
Quoted from Eskaybee:Best mini pf in pinball.
If this is true. You have to give it to ACNC for being first and having pretty much the same shots.

Another great upper playfield. Forgot about that. The tiny little kickback shot is so great.

Quoted from Phbooms:Just looked and mines off to! Got to adjust the shooter lane stopper a bit to so it stops letting the balls come backwards while I'm in there.

Mine kept on coming off too. So I took a pair of needle noses stretched it out stuck it back in and then gently bent it downwards and it hasn't come out since and works perfectly

Well, I take the whole design into consideration. But yes, ACNC is another great one and such a cool game too!

Same. Spreading out the "W" a little is all it really takes.

Quoted from punkin:Can someone point me to the post where the balls draining from the guitar lock fix is please? i remember it was a rail bend or a little clear bump glued on, but can't remember the details.
My left one is stdtm 90%
For me, slightly squeezing in the metal guitar neck border greatly improved this.
It makes the balls hit the plastic in the center on the way out which aims them away from the center drain.

Coil settings > guitar locks > play with the speeds. I think I went down one notch on my left lock, but up one notch on the right.

I should have elaborated on where I bent it. After it goes through the ramp on the outside is where I bent it downwards to lock it in
My ball keeps on getting stuck on the inside spinner to the right side of it when returning to the flippers. It wasn't happening in the beginning at all but now it's starting to do so regularly. I know someplace way back in this thread there was a fix for this. Any help would be much appreciated
Quoted from zaphX:Yeah it really doesn't take much pressure/bending at all. I can't even visibly see a change after I did it.
Does this mean you've decided to keep it?
slowed the release speed down by one and will see what that does.
I've taken the ad down, but the right offer would still see it go. It's a great machine, i'm just not a good enough player to get the fun out of it. Just played a game this morning, two songs started, thirst for carnage went really well etc. 1.5m 
It'll stay i reckon, but down the back with Hobbit, Houdini Alice Cooper and other games i rarely play.

I tried the release speed too, but ultimately changed it back. The slight rail bend did the most good for me on the problem.
My personal observation and belief is that if one side (or both) are SDTMing, the balls are resting far enough away from the center triangular plastic that it doesn't make contact on the way out...meaning it will not be "steered" left or right and instead follow the whim of gravity and whatever bounce it gets on the way down.

Wait until you start getting hooked on building the perfect multiball stack going in, the perfect patch set etc!
Quoted from zaphX:Wait until you start getting hooked on building the perfect multiball stack going in, the perfect patch set etc!
Never noticed a patch yet. I'm fondling myself if i hit the ramp twice, let alone locking six balls.

Maybe try keeping your hands on the flippers? Just a thought.

I foot fondle.

I posted that fix. My game did that out of the box. The bracket that the spinner ends run through wasnt bent square, it was a slight angle. That was causing the spinnerto slightly bind up when spinning slowly, sometimes trapping the ball. All it took was a slight bend in the bracket to allow the spinner to spin freely.
Quoted from punkin:I foot fondle.
Cut back to a half skid of beer and the game will come along naturally lol. Give it time, I to get Way frustrated especially with JJP titles but over time you figure out a good rhythm.
Quoted from punkin:I foot fondle.
This is a whole new unanticipated level of flexibility. Carry on sir, carry on.

Is this the one you're thinking of ?

Gday Rocanich
Looks great .
How did you connect the soundbar .
Quoted from Rocanich:Hi gunners,

Except you don’t have the CE playfield artwork which is all I care about since I have my games so close together you can’t see cab artwork anyway.

I'm interested too in installing a soundbar, so any detail about your setup will be highly appreciated

If you search this thread with the "Find" feature at the top of page using "Sound Bar" you will find Many who have already documented this process with photos, links to sound bars and all you need to do this. Mine was around $40 on Amazon and worth the upgrade to me. Did end up adding the Polk10 sub as this game does deserve it.

That looks great! Where did you get the topper?
I found the soundbar to not be needed. Def needed an external subwoofer under the game - that made a HUGE improvement on the audio.
Soundbar, not so much for my ears. Was going to leave the soundbar installed for cosmetic reasons, but went in another direction for my topper.
Quoted from Dkjimbo:Any recent LE invoice payer (last week seems to have been the busy week for distributors collecting payments) get a shipping date yet?
I talked to my distributor last Thursday and he said he had called JJP that day and that JJP told him to expect a shipment of LE's in a "couple weeks". Mine will be in that shipment and I was a week one order. I'm hoping for it to arrive in a "couple weeks"

Great! Was just wondering if the CE run is done or not. Hopefully I get an email soon on my le day one order as well. Was asked for full payment by March 12th.
Does anyone have any experience with flippers sticking? My right flipper sticks all of the sudden and I can’t find any obvious reason why.
Quoted from Dashmonster:Does anyone have any experience with flippers sticking? My right flipper sticks all of the sudden and I can’t find any obvious reason why.
Can you manipulate it freely by hand, or does it feel like it's binding?
Is the spring intact? Coil stop?
Fantastic video JJP and thank you zaphX for the share! Turns out there was no up and down flipper gap. Compared to the left it was tight as shit with no play. Loosened it up and gapped it properly and we are back in business.

Besides zaphX excellent response. Be sure your flipper button leaf blades are making and breaking clean. Not that one is sticking closed.
LTG : )

Butch Peel did the pinball community a great service with his series of videos - I learned a ton! Very glad you got it working well, fixing things is a real joy.
It’s 1/2 the reason I love this hobby. Mechanical things are uniquely satisfying to troubleshoot and maintain. The almost instant help on this site is invaluable and MUCH appreciated. Side question. Should a guy keep a few coil sleeves on hand in case one burns up on this game? I would hate to ruin the weekend play because of something like that. I have a complete set of rubbers but what else?

I wouldn't say it's common_ that coil sleeves fail...but GNR flippers definitely run hot so it wouldn't be a terrible idea to keep some.
I change mine out every few thousand plays for performance.
Consumables I keep, in order of most frequently replaced to least frequently replaced:
- Flipper rubbers
- Slingshot rubbers
- Coil Sleeves
- Balls
- The rest of the rubbers for the game
- Flipper rebuild kits
Anyone have cab separation issues? right side is how it should look, left side you can see it sticking out further than the rail. The plywood is separating. Oh yeah, i have cab art bubbling too
I’ll be curious how they cover this as this is crazy and it’s the latest run

I wouldn't jump to the conclusion that the plywood is separating based on the guides not being lined up exactly. It looks like barely 1/16", which could be a bend in the guide, or even a guide manufacturing tolerance difference.

I can literally push it together and if the remove the rails screw it slides out further. If the rail screw and hinge wasn’t holding it together with would separate completely.
I’ll take a pic with the tap measure. If I knew how to share videos on here I would show you
