This might be in the wrong section....I am sure I will be told. :5-

For those of you that are older than 50 years of age you might like this build.

I am putting together a " Bally Lone Ranger Frenzy 4 reel game" machine

I just thought the theme and kit were cool and reminded of a childhood memory. (I am old)

This is a work in progress and I would like to share the progress and give credit to those that helped out.

The machine will be a round top 4 reel Bally S6000 bought from Ford. Perfect clean machine. I pick it up this weekend from him. My 3rd machine I have purchased from him and all have been top quality!

The Award glass and strips came from JJ Slots

The Belly Glass came from an E-bay seller I traded stuff to so I got it cheap and not for the high price she wanted.

The chip is the same a Bonus Frenzy SMI#9625 which I have

The coin Mech, Bracket, Hopper and Harness and entry shute came from Raz

It will include a Chrome tracking bar for the Pro-sound board I bought from LA Slots in the past

A fully funtional Bally Mastercom setup to match the tracking bar from Raz. I programmed the chip to what I wanted.

Topper housing from e-bay seller that sells for LA Slots (not LA Slots)

Custom Topper made by me..pictures to come soon...

50 cent brand new tokens that look kinda like ranger badges  (1500 of them)  off e-bay

Pro Sound board for top box speakers w/harness  Raz

Will post pictures as it progresses....


You have to be old to enjoy and understand this build :200-

Few more starting pics

And 2 more until I get it in the machine i pick up Sunday from FORD :88-

AND RARE, YOU DON'T SEE ONE OF THOSE EVERYDAY.

Hi Ho Silver!!! Away!!! :97-

CH :95-

Sorry CH...you just gave it away !!!  You are old enough...

Not something you see everyday! Thought it was worth the effort and money to add to the collection..I like cool differect stuff that not everyone has. :71-

"The Lone Ranger! "Hi Yo Silver!"
A fiery horse with the speed of light, a cloud of dust and a hearty "Hi Yo Silver!" The Lone Ranger. "Hi Yo Silver, away!" With his faithful Indian companion Tonto, the daring and resourceful masked rider of the plains, led the fight for law and order in the early west.

I always thought it was "Heido Ho"... :72-  oh well...>>>

After listening, I think Buzz is smoking Crack! :5- I thought that I heard a Ho??? Maybe it was Yo Ho where's my crack? :5-

I just wanted to be crazy and use the alternative slang for HO! I better stop while I am behind, lest I may have to use a HOE to dig my own grave! :200-

It was not easy to distinctly tell the wording, so I have to trust Buzzard and the other "senior" folks! :208-

CH :95-

Does make me want to look for the series on DVD though! :97-

Damn  Do I have to tell you everything I know.  OK    "Your sitting on it."      I don't do left handed Cigarettes

This is what I was waiting for. Now I can hit the sheets
Ford

One last one for tonight..Long way to go yet...

Thanks again Ford, for the great base to put it in...Could not have asked for a cleaner machine... :3- Will get it finished up this week and post the final product with video.

No just a standard 4 reel Bonus frenzy glass. I have an E-mail in to Raz for one...He always comes thru for me..Hope he can again this time as I completely overlooked this major detail. But not a problem. Will look a lot better when I have the Player tracking bar populated and the topper on.

But you may need this to wear while plaing it....

Played for a while tonight and it is a fun game. I have the Pro Sound board with the Bonus frenzy chip in it. Took a little while to figure out that the base sounds are adjusted on the Pro sound card and the bonus sounds are adjusted on the MPU board volume controlon the front left of the tray that normally does nothing on the base sound card. Always wondered why it was there. I am new to Bally.. learning a lot.

I also love the old coin feel...So I put a 50 cent agitator style hopper in it, 50 cent coin mech and bought 1200 brand new great looking and feel 50 cent tokens. Great to feel and hear that coin . Brings back the good old days along with the theme...Ticket printer still works for big wins but little ones pay to the tray like the old days...Wife loves it too   :96- :96- :96- :96- :96- makes buying more easy  :208- :208- :208- :97- :97-

Not! is right

Well..Raz to the rescue as I knew he would. :3- :3- :3- :3- Reel Glass found and on the way.  If any one need something PLEASE do not forget RAZ. He is a great guy and a very fast shipper and sells quality stuff. I have delt with him many many times and always 100% satisfied. He stands behind what he sells and you get what you asked for! :71- :71- :71-

Thanks Raz for being here !! :3- :3- :3- :3- :3- :3- :3-

Update...

Reel glass from Raz will be here tomorrow.. But Mastercom installed with proper stuff and topper with custom insert installed. Will have mastercom message programmed as the story line for the Lone Ranger and the power supply and LED driver for the topper should be done by the week end..

Looks great. Looking forward to the finished project.

Knowing Coors he'll be posting it running before weekend.
It sure is looking good. :259-  for sharing

It is actually a copper in color which matches the theme.

It is running,,,and perfectly. I set this one up the old way. The way the wife likes it. Coin in (large tokens) all wins go to tray under 500 credits, wins over 501 credits print a ticket. No credits on machine..you have to play coin. Bills give you coin not credit. This machine is running on 1200 brand new tokens not real coin. Sounds great hearing them hit the tray. Was saving the video for the completed machine...Getting there fast...

Video???

Awesome Machine!  What a great title. Great job putting it together.
E!

When using a Pro Sound or Pro Sound II board, you disconnect the standard set of wires to the lower speaker and then connect the wires from the Pro Sound/II board.  The volume is then controlled by the Pro Sound/II board and not the mpu control.  From what you are saying, it sounds like you either have both sets of wire connected or don't have the Pro Sound II wires connected.

Thanks,
Wayne

I may be the one who screwed up. The pro sound II board was bad in there. I hooked up regular speaker until I
got another board to put in. I might have forgot to switch bottom speaker wires. THAT IS WHAT HAPPENS WITH OLD AGE.
We'll find out when Coors checks it.
Ford

Coors, Did you get the reel glass?

Yes, Thanks to Raz...Looks great.

Will post pictures tomorrow..Grandkids over tonight so not much got done..
