Based on the Stern table from 1980. This table was designed by Harry Williams.
This is another rebuild from scratch
The graphics are almost the same as in my VP9 table, I only changed them a little.
I made a new apron and backdrop, and changed the light inserts. I also fixed a few small details in the plastics and the playfield. They aren't great, but they will do for now.
New in version 4.1.0: And here came redbone to the rescue with enhanced graphics!

yeah, watch this video...
Thanks for the link there drbranko 
I suppose I shpuld have known better that a great JPSalas table would have anything obviously wrong with it. That video is great... really explains a lot. Gonna watch many more of that channel now.
Even a previous owner didn't like the back ground beating. I suppose the next question is can those sounds be blanked off from the rom? That's beyond my remit I'm afraid. Might not be possible at all. Love the table but that background drum noise does get on my tits <^.^>
I have an update on this. Being new to VP this year I only just discovered about pressing F6 when the table has loaded to get ROM options. Lo and behold in those options is one to turn the annoying background noise off. But it was already switched to off. Hmmm... so I switched it "on" and the noise disappeared. Looks like that switched is wired back to front. 
No matter... at least i sorted my one issue with the table. Love it
Great table with awesome drop target SSF, thanks for sharing.
Awesome!!! Thanks!
Thank You JP! everyone else is da man, but you're Da King! you bring happiness every single day and are appreciated and grateful. Thank You!
Thank you JP

I really like this table. But I have an annoying background noise beating away all the time when I play. I'm sure that's not supposed to be there. Did the real table do that?
