Description
MAGNIFICENT MINT MINUS AUDIO
EX++ SLEEVE WITH CARD INNER AND BOOKLET
THE RECORD
THE LABELS
THE BLACK AND YELLOW LABELS ARE IN SUPERB CONDITION. BOTH BASE COLOURS ARE IMMACULATE AND UNWORN.
THE YELLOW TYPEFACE IS PRISTINE UNRUBBED AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE.
THERE ARE NO VISIBLE SPIDER LINES BY THE SPINDLE HOLE
THE VINYL
SUPREME AND VERY GLOSSY RECORD WHICH LOOKS FLAWLESS IN DAYLIGHT AND LOOKS AS GOOD WHEN PLACED UNDER A MAGNIFYING LED HALO
THE TEST PLAY
THE FIRST AND MOST IMPORTANT THING TO STATE IS THAT IT PLAYS WITHOUT ANY DISTORTION WHATSOEVER, MEANING THAT THE RECORD WAS PLAYED WITH A CORRECTLY WEIGHTED AND UNWORN STYLUS. IN ADDITION THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS JUST MAGNIFICENT.
THERE IS NO HEAVY BACKGROUND CRACKLE AT ANY POINT AND NO LOUD CLICKS EITHER
SILENT LINKING GROOVES
NO TICS OR POPS
ALL I HEARD WERE A COUPLE OF SPLIT SECONDS OF BARELY AUDIBLE STATIC LIKE BACKGROUND
I AM HAPPY TO GRADE THE AUDIO AS MINT MINUS
ANYWAY PLEASE DON'T TAKE MY WORD FOR IT, LISTEN TO IT FOR YOURSELF AND BE THE JUDGE
THE SLEEVE
NON LAMINATED MATTE SINGLE SLEEVE FROM SHOREPAK
THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND TOTALLY FREE FROM CREASES OR MARKS. THE COLOURS ARE DEEP, RICH AND VIBRANT AND THERE IS NO RUB OR FADE
THERE ARE JUST TWO SMALL PRESSURE LINES BY THE SPINE. ONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, ONE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND ZERO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE
ONE SMALL CREASE LINE OVER THE BOTTOM LEFT CORNER TIP
THERE IS NO RING WEAR OR RECORD SHAPE. THE TOP LEFT CORNER TIP HAS A SPECK OF WEAR AND THE BOTTOM TWO HAVE A DOT OF RUB ON THE TIPS
THE TOP EDGE IS IN SUPERB CONDITION. FULLY COLOURED AND FREE FROM ANY SHELF WEAR. THIS INCLUDES THE LEFT AND RIGHT CORNER TIPS. THE BOTTOM EDGE IS IDENTICAL, APART FROM A PIN PRICK OF RUB TO THE RIGHT TIP
THE SPINE IS FLAT AND UNSQUASHED. EVERY LETTER OF THE TYPEFACE IS PERFECT. A LITTLE SPECK OF RUB AT THE TOP AND BOTTOM ENDS
THE OPENING EDGE STILL RAZOR SHARP
THE REAR SURFACE IIS ALMOST AS GOOD AS THE FRONT, JUST A VERY LIGHT SHADOW OF RECORD SHAPE AT THE TOP
THE CARD INNER SLEEVE HAS NO SEAM SPLITS AND NO CREASES, AND ONLY A VERY MILD OUTLINE OF RECORD IMPRESSION
THE LYRIC/ PICTURE BOOKLET IS IN PERFECT CONDITION
THE SLEEVE GRADES EX++
