Description

BLIND LEMON JEFFERSON PARAMOUNT 12578 BLUES 78 rpm V+
BLIND LEMON MASTERPIECE. LITE SCRATCHES, PLAYS REALLY STRONG. I JUST SLIGHTLY UPGRADED. THIS MAY BE LEMON'S GREATEST GUITAR RECORD, AN UNUSUAL "KEY OF A" TUNE WITH GUITAR SOLOS. TOP TEXAS BLUES.
GRADE: V+ Very sorry to the folks that already had bids, but I had to relist this because I had an error in the listing. Anyway, I was able to put up a longer video. Sorry & Thanks for bidding!
ALL RECORDS PLAY GRADED USING A STANTON 500-ll CARTRIDGE USING A 3.5TE STYLUS. PLEASE SEE VIDEO FOR A CLIP OF THIS RECORD PLAYING.


You are buying from lifelong record collector and record seller John Heneghan. I have years of experience grading & selling 78’s and pride myself in conservative grading and fast shipping. 
ALSO PLEASE NOTE THAT NONE OF MY PHOTOS HAVE BEEN PHOTOSHOPPED OR ENHANCED IN ANY WAY. So many sellers today use heavy contrast and Photoshop to make their records look cleaner than they are, but not me. You can tell when the shellac is really dark & shinny, and it’s not an E+ copy that it’s been manipulated. If the record is graded V- but the photo of the record looks E+, that photo has been altered. My goal is to give the buyer the utmost confidence in what they're bidding on so please listen to the clip of the record playing in the video provided. Thanks!

Standard 78 rpm grading system:
N- = like new
E+ = a virtually perfect copy with only minor signs of having been played
E = very slight signs of wear, maybe some minor scuffing and/or light scratches but a clean copy with little groove wear
E- = slightly above average copy, some groove wear and minor blemishes but music way above noise
VG+ = an average copy, signs of use, some groove wear but music still above noise
VG = wear, scuffing, light scratches. music equal to noise
VG- will play but is quite worn. noise louder than music
G+ = a playable copy but very very worn, noise much louder than music
G = plays through, rough noise extremely loud
P =  once might have been a phonograph record, wall hanger
