CONDITION- Superb Condition, Lovely Crisp, Shiny Black Acetate. Incredibly Rare!
ACETATE: "Unlike ordinary vinyl records, which are quickly formed from lumps of plastic by a mass-production molding process, a so called acetate disc is created by using a recording lathe to cut a sound-modulated groove into the surface of a special lacquer-coated blank disc, a real-time operation requiring expensive, delicate equipment and expert skill for good results. They are made for special purposes, almost never for sale to the general public. They can be played on any normal phonograph but will be degraded by wear much more quickly than vinyl. Some acetates are highly prized for their rarity, especially when they contain unpublished material.
Acetates are typically produced by dubbing from a master tape recording. By electroplating the acetate master, stampers (special moulds) can be created, which in turn are used to press large quantities of regular vinyl records. Acetates are also used for testing the quality of the tape-to-disc transfer. Historically, they were also a favored medium for use in comparing different takes or mixes, and for getting preview copies of impending new releases into the hands of important disc jockeys".
Just FANTASTIC ! This is an incredibly rare release. Truly superb & essential to own. This amazing release was issued in very limited quantities, only 4 copies of this particular version were made & very seldomly do they come on to the market. A quality addition to any record collection. Do not miss out. Enjoy !
Postage costs depend upon where you live in the world & how you would like the item posted? Please note that Acetate pressings are made of metal & as such are heavy so postage costs may differ from those listed. Please ask for costs. If you live outside the UK items must be mailed by registered mail (with Tracking info) this is to ensure you actually get the record you paid for & that it does not get lost in the labyrinthine postal system, so the price shown in the listing may be more. Please ask for Registered/Insured/Signed For delivery prices.
