THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE SUPERB DEEP RED LABELS ARE IN PRISTINE CONDITION. THE RICH AND VIBRANT BASE COLOURS FULLY STRETCH INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE, AND ALL OF THE SILVER TYPEFACE IS BOTH UNRUBBED AND CLEAR AND LEGIBLE.THERE IS JUST ONE TINY SPIDER LINE AROUND THE SPINDLE HOLE
THE VINYL
THE FIRST PRESS STILL RETAINS ALL OF IT'S ORIGINAL LUSTRE, AND GLEAMS LIKE NEW. THERE ARE NO SIGNS OF ANY HANDLING MARKS , AND IN DAYLIGHT IT LOOKS FLAWLESS, EVEN UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE ARE JUST A COUPLE OF WISPY HAIRLINES AND ONE ULTRA FINE ANGEL HAIRLINE HANDLING LINE (NON SOUNDING)
PLAYING THE RECORD
I BELIEVE THAT IF YOU ARE GOING TO SPEND YOUR MONEY ON A FANTASTIC COLLECTIBLE VINYL, THAT YOU SHOULD BE GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO HEAR WHAT YOU ARE BUYING. I HAVE THEREFORE INVESTED IN THE SOFTWARE THAT ALLOWS YOU TO DO JUST THAT.
I HAVE RECORDED THE ENTIRE LP FROM START TO FINISH AS I DO WITH ALL MY LISTINGS BECAUSE I FIRMLY BELIEVE THAT BIDDERS WOULD LOVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR THE RECORD BEFORE LAYING A BID.
THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS
THE LP PLAYS THROUGH BRILLIANTLY ON BOTH SIDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW FANTASTIC THIS LP SOUNDS. THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS MAGNIFICENT
THERE IS NO DISTORTION TO THE RECORDING AT ANY POINT SHOWING THAT THE LITTLE PLAY THE LP HAS RECEIVED WAS COMPLETED ON A SYSTEM THAT HAD A CORRECTLY WEIGHTED AND UNWORN STYLUS
THERE IS NO HEAVY BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND NO LOUD CLICKS
NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE EITHER
THERE ARE A COUPLE OF SPLIT SECONDS OF BARELY AUDIBLE STATIC LIKE BACKGROUND, HEARD ONLY DURING A FEW THE MOST SILENT PASSAGES IF AT ALL, AND A MINUSCULE AMOUNT OF BARELY AUDIBLE AND RANDOM LITTLE TICS AND POPS HERE AND THERE
PLEASE TAKE A FULL LISTEN TO THE WHOLE COMPOSITION AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF
THE SLEEVE
LAMINATED FRONT SURFACE, NON LAMINATED FLIPBACK REAR SURFACE
THE FRONT SURFACE AHAS WEAR TO THE FOUR CORNERS AND O
THE BOTTOM RIGHT HAS A SMALL SPLIT TO THE SEAM
THIS IS VERY FLIMSY THIN CARD SLEEVE AND HAS NOT STOOD THE TEST OF TIME AS WELL AS THE VINYL WHICH REMAINS ALMOST UNPLAYED
THERE ARE NUMEROUS TINY LAMINATE LINES CLOSE TO THE SPINE. NONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, NONE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE, PLUS ONE THUMB LINE NEAR THE OPENING EDGE.
THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE WORN AT THE CORNERS BUT OTHERWISE HAVE GOOD LAMINATE
THE WAFER THIN SPINE HAS THE BLACK SURFACE CHIPPED IN FOUR OR FIVE PLACES AND SHELF WEAR TO THE TOP AND BOTTOM TIPS
THE OPENING EDGE IS STILL VERY SHARP
THE REAR SURFACE HAS PERFECTLY ADHERED FLIPBACKS AND A VERY WHITE SURFACE THAT HAS NO RUBBING TO THE TYPEFACE. THE SURFACE IS CLEAN AND HAS ONE PEN INSCRIPTION IN THE TOP RIGHT CORNER.
THE ORIGINAL INNER SLEEVE IS IN EXCEPTIONAL UNSPLIT CONDITION,
I AM PERFECTLY HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE VERY GOOD
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
