Foxxslots had a special reel tray that had a
low shelf on the right for a DBV to sit on.
He also had the special DBV if I remember correctly.
I know they were called "Western Money" DBV's.
There was a short reel glass too with a metal edge and
the unit looked like it was made for those style of S+'s
that didn't have the hole in the door.
I'd give him a buzz and see if he still has the unit.

You know, it's interesting that collectively we shun these external DBVs and call them ugly. They are certainly less elegant than having a machine designed from the ground up to house a bill validator, but from a historical standpoint (we are collectors of history to some extent), these were the very first bill validators ever to be seen on slot machines.

I have a very distinct memory of the first time that I ever saw one of these. It was in Reno at Circus Circus coming down the escalator -- the machine was directly ahead of me against the wall as I got to the bottom -- and I recall thinking about how much more money the casinos would rake in, and how much these things would change the face of casino gambling (not that I knew just how  things would change. arrow)

Ugly? Maybe. But their introduction led to the eventual elimination of change personnel walking the casino floors with carts. They eliminated the need to build banks of slot machines with elevated walking space between their backsides and to have people standing up there offering racks of tokens to the dollar slot players, thus freeing up floor space for more slots. They paved the way for coin-hungry multi-line, multi-coin video machines and increased slot revenue to the point that pit games were reduced to tiny areas in the center of the casinos. They significantly reduced the number of rolled coins and wrappers used, even before TITO, which of course, wouldn't have been possible without the introduction of validators.

These ugly external boxes started one of the biggest revolutions in slot history. I think that they deserve at least a small place in our collections and perhaps just a bit more respect.

I actually have kept the only one I have just for the fact that it was indeed...ugly....lol
But I also thought it was a very peculiar looking beast.
I also have one complete, and fully working "Western Money" reel glass bill acceptor
I will never part with because THAT'S also a weird thing too!
You open the door and the whole thing slides right out...it's kinda cool really!
It has separate boards in it and a huge M-th---u--er 60-100 pin+ gigantic cable harness I've only seen
on one of my dad's first dot matrix printers with folded paper and holes on each side of it!
The holes had to be lined up into the printer and when you were done,
you tore off the perforated hole strips from the sides.
I'm talking early eighties computers with a 4" green screen! lol IBM something or Tandy I think -
still in the original box in the garage.

Hello all!

Go Bananas! is one of my favorite kits.  It is the same as a Haywire.  Here's a pic of my kit in my S2000.  I don't have it in now or I would take some video of it.  Maybe I will have to put it in.  It plays just like this one except no nudge...

I have a spare S2000 sitting here that I would like to make into something "nice"
Still looking for the Basechip number for DOUBLE 10X Pay. I dont know if it runs a 0001000 base chip and a SS or a SB chip.
I have all the glass and new reel strips for it. This is a 5 line theme

Dan 2,

In the casino's I've never heard that sound chip in a Haywire Deluxe. First time I heard that sound was while playing Titanic a few years back. Sounds nice!
The S2000 has such a nice chrisper play compared to the S+. Nice machine.

I received one of those extremely in-depth mid-decade questionnaires a year or two back. They stamped their feet and threatened all kinds of criminal penalties for not sending back the form. I ignored the form and the threats. (The threats both accompanied the form and were sent under separate cover, costing the government even more of my tax dollars.) They then sent another copy and said that I was costing the government money by forcing them to hire more individuals to follow up and make sure that I sent it in. I shredded the second copy as well. I haven't heard from them since.

If they want legitimate census information from me in 2010 (a decade year), that's fine. My answer to the only question that they are allowed to ask: "There is one person living here." Discussion over.

You have got me there. yes Cry Laughing Cry Laughing I was playing my GM tonight and my cat kept getting up on his hind legs and putting his paws on my knee.

I agree - When a 10Mhz gameis installed on a 16MHz board, it sounds like sh....! Tongue Out
Try putting a 16MHz chip in a 10MHz board...the reels spin sideways  arrow

The 16Mhz boards do have a slight buzz that can be heard in quiet room, and the haywire re-spin sounds do not sound right.
100ns or faster game and reel chip will help with the buzz.
Maybe trying different 16Mhz Game (SP) for type 2, 21 that work in the 16Mhz boards may sound better.   
That could be a timing issue in the game chip or such (sounds like the sounds get jumbled or mixed up)

I have not tried a double spin or win til you win with them yet.

It's actually a lot of fun juggling around chips with different MHz boards.
It's even better when you have different board versions...specifically the board versions that
allow you to change the pins using the jumper next to the sockets.
I had to change the jumpers when trying out the oldest SP chips and Army chips.
I haven't tried faster chips other than those with about 90 or 100ns speeds.
