Best Rush Pinball Mods

Rush isn't just one of the greatest progressive rock bands of all time.

It's also one of the most visually distinctive music-themed pinball machines Stern has ever produced.

Designed by John Borg, Rush celebrates more than four decades of legendary albums, unforgettable songs and iconic artwork, combining vibrant cabinet art with one of the richest visual identities in modern pinball. Whether you're a lifelong Rush fan or simply love beautifully themed machines, it's a game that deserves artwork worthy of the music.

If you're looking to personalise yours, here are our favourite upgrades.

Bring the Music Into the Cabinet

One of the biggest visual upgrades you can make to any pinball machine is adding WizBlades.

Rush already features beautiful artwork inspired by the band's legendary album covers, and extending that artwork inside the cabinet creates an even more immersive experience. Instead of black cabinet walls, the playfield feels surrounded by the same colourful universe that made Rush's visual identity so memorable.

It's one of those upgrades that completely changes the look of the machine from the very first game.

Complete the Front of the Machine

Modern Stern machines feature incredible cabinet artwork, but the speaker panel often interrupts the visual flow.

That's exactly what our Pro WizPanels and Premium WizPanels were designed to solve.

By continuing the artwork naturally between the backbox and the cabinet, they create the impression that the entire front of the machine is one continuous illustration. It's a surprisingly dramatic transformation and one of the most popular upgrades for collectors who appreciate great artwork.

Small Details That Make a Big Difference

Some of the simplest upgrades are also the most satisfying.

Our LE WizEmblems bring extra personality to the lockdown bar area, adding themed artwork exactly where players spend every game pressing the action button.

Meanwhile, our WizBats give the flippers a completely new look, adding artwork to one of the most visible parts of the playfield. Since your eyes naturally follow the flippers throughout every game, it's a small upgrade that delivers a much bigger impact than most people expect.

Finishing the Cabinet

A great-looking machine deserves attention from every angle.

Our Pro WizWings extend the artwork onto the cabinet hinges, creating a cleaner and more finished appearance when viewing the machine from the side.

On the front of the cabinet, our Premium WizDoors replace the plain black coin door with artwork that blends naturally into the rest of the machine, making the entire front feel far more cohesive.

For collectors who own the Limited Edition, our LE WizAprons complete the lower playfield while remaining perfectly compatible with the factory insider connected opening, preserving one of the LE's most distinctive features.

One of the Most Beautiful Music-Themed Machines

Rush has always been a band with a strong visual identity.

Album covers like 2112, Moving Pictures and A Farewell to Kings became almost as iconic as the music itself, and Stern did an excellent job bringing that artistic heritage into pinball.

The colourful cabinet, expressive artwork and spectacular lighting make Rush one of the most attractive music-themed machines ever produced.
