Willie Rosario El Rey del Ritmo 1979 Salsa LP Vinyl 12" Vinyl is in Near Mint (NM or M-) record grading and good age worn sleeve grading, making it a valuable addition to any Latin music collector's collection. This record was never used on a home record player since the needle quality at home is different from studio and DJ quality. This record among the rest of the studio collection has been played only on SL 1200 Turntables or Studio Grade Pioneers at nightclubs or on live radio.
My entire collection has been stored & ultrasonically cleaned and well maintained for continuous Studio, night club & live radio use.
__________________________________________________________________________________ The Core Grades in Real Life: Different sellers and regions use slightly different systems, but these are the practical meanings most collectors work with. NM (Near Mint): This should be very close to new: clean surfaces, minimal handling signs, and very quiet playback. In practice, true NM is uncommon on older records. Treat "NM" claims with extra scrutiny, especially on 1950s originals.
EX (Excellent): EX usually means a strong collector copy with light signs of use. Playback should be clean with only minor occasional noise.
EX: Is often the sweet spot for serious listening and long-term collecting, if the price stays reasonable.
VG+ (Very Good Plus) VG+ is one of the most inconsistently used grades in online listings.
Proper VG+ should still play well, with some light noise and visible signs of use, but no heavy groove damage.
A fair VG+ copy can be a great buy. An inflated VG+ is where beginners lose money.
VG (Very Good): VG means visible wear and audible imperfections are expected. It can still be enjoyable, especially for scarce titles, but this is not a "clean copy" grade.
Record Grade vs Sleeve Grade: Always separate media condition from cover condition. A sleeve can be VG while vinyl is EX, or the opposite.
