Picked up this very rare gem a year ago and just getting to it now. Bally Black Jack EM.
Cleaning up really nicely. BG was trashed so have a BG resto ready to install into it once I am done with the playfield.

The thing I do like better on the SS version is the saucer sound effect when you beat the dealer.
On the SS when going into the saucer, it gives a 1,2,3,4 note 3 times then scores.
The EM just sounds that annoying "Over the Top" buzzer that sounds like your laundry is done. I clipped the wire going to that buzzer
for now. Would love some ideas on what to install for a sound effect or light effect instead for this clipped wire to drive.
Anything is better than that buzzer.

Quoted from atpcfiaim:

I have the same game and the “Over The Top” Bally buzzer for each “Winner” was too much to take. It is not an appropriate indication of anything but an Over The Top score on the Bally games I had played up until Black Jack. For my solution I found a 6 volt bell and made some modifications to splice it in to the existing Black Jack wiring harness. Now each Winner sounds similar to an old Bally EM Money Honey slot machine jackpot. The photo shows the bell in the old buzzer position with no mods but a couple screw holes just prior to final installation.[quoted image]

I like your solution!
Where can I buy one of these?

New BG resto backglass in tonight with new trim.
Very unique looking pin to add to the lineup very soon.
A couple more night's worth of work left on it and it will get its first play in a long time.
