Condition:
Vinyl: EXCELLENT +
Labels: EXCELLENT
The labels are bright, clean and without writing. Only very light spindle marks can be seen to both sides.
Visual: EXCELLENT
Immaculate 'factory-fresh' deep-gloss playing surfaces which only show light paper scuffs in bright daylight. Underneath a halogen desk lamp a few barely visible wispy paper hairlines can be seen alongside a sparkling rainbow shine.
Sound Quality: EXCELLENT
The audio is fantastic. This copy has clearly only been played on good quality equipment. There is no sign of groove or play wear. There are quiet lead-ins to both sides and minimal static in between tracks. There is great channel separation, clear vocals and punchy bass. You will not need to look for another copy of this fantastic record.
Sleeve: EXCELLENT +
This as-new sleeve looks superb! Both front and back retain a glossy finish with bright colours. There are one or two laminate ripples to the front side. All corners are crisp and sharp. The opening, top and bottom edges and the square spine are all without any wear.
Inner Sleeve: EXCELLENT +
The original inner sleeve is in great condition. There is the unavoidable sign of subtle ring wear. The vinyl is housed inside an audiophile quality, anti-static inner sleeve to help protect and preserve the record and inner sleeve.
The record will be sent via an insured courier in a padded vinyl mailer.
