Description
Art Pepper - Live at the Village Vanguard (Contemporary). This is the original 3 LP box set manufactured by King Records in Japan. Mastered by Kevin Gray and Steve Hoffman at 45 RPM on two vinyl LPs.

Vinyl LPs are M-. Box is M-/VG++ (slight aging on the front, see the pictures).
LP GRADING
My vinyl/cd playback system includes a ClearAudio turntable, Rega tonearm, Hana cartridge, Oppo CD/SACD/blu-ray player, VAC pre-amp/phono stage, VAC amp, Triangle speakers, Surpurnal cables, Mapleshade speaker wire.
All of the LPs I sell are from my personal collection. Vinyl is play graded on sound, not looks. Visible marks will be noted. If not sealed, I have played and enjoyed the album. If you are an experienced record collector, I'm sure you will be pleased with my LP's and grading system (please see the 8000+ positive feedbacks from buyers I have received).
M- = Mint Minus. Plays quietly. Either a nearly new recently manufactured LP, or an older LP in excellent condition for its age. Older LP's (30-50 years old) rated M- may have an occasional tick or groove noise.
VG++ = Record may have surface noise or ticks here and there. Many rare/collector LP receive this rating.
VG+ = Some noticeable surface noise, but not so much that record is not enjoyable.
VG = Definitely some major noise or other imperfections, but worth it because the record is so rare.
COVER GRADING
I use a snapshot camera to take pictures of LPs, CDs and DVD/Blu-rays. Often times, light will reflect on vinyl LPs, and LP and CD covers. The reflected light may look like spots which do not actually exist..they are just reflected light. I strive to have accurate and detailed descriptions of the items I sell, noting defects I see. If an LP is rated M-, it will be M-. Please see my eBay feedback rating from Buyers.
M- = Recent albums still look new, and older collector's albums look nearly new..accounting for some small fading or loss of cover gloss. I post pictures of all the albums I'm selling so you can see for yourself.VG++ = Still looks good,but used. Minor imperfections will be noted in listing.
VG+ = Some strong wear. Possibly seam splits and/or taped seams.
VG= Beaten senseless
