Description
Guns n' Roses - Use Your Illusion II - OG 1991 First US Pressing - Double Vinyl LP
I did a full album complete PLAY TEST on a high end Technics SL-1200MK7 turntable. All turntables/needles (stylus) may sound/play differently but this should give you the most accurate idea of the audio quality.
Disc 1 Side 1 plays nicely throughout. There is the slightest bit of a "crackle" during the quiet intro on Track 1 but goes away once the music kicks in. Side 2 has a light "crackle" during the run in before the first track until the music starts. Otherwise, side 2 sounds great.
Disc 2 Side 3 sounds great throughout. Side 4 has a very light bit of "crackling" during the quietest parts of the songs but goes away when the music kicks in. Overall, the audio quality is very solid throughout both records.
Includes both original picture inserts/inner sleeves. Sleeve for disc 1 has no seam splits. It has some very light ring wear and some minor wear near the top. Sleeve for disc 2 has a 1.5 inch seam split on the bottom seam. It has some very light ring wear and some minor wear near the top. The vinyl records will be mailed in new generic white inner sleeves to prevent damage during shipping.
Both discs have minimal surface marking or hairlines. Neither disc has any deep scratches, anything that could be felt with a finger or anything that affects playback. The labels on both discs are clean with minimal signs of wear - see photos. The discs have only been played a couple of times. Solid VG+ for both discs.
The jacket is fairly worn. There is some ring wear, quite a few creases and some wear to the corners and the spine. The video and the photos should be able to give you a pretty good idea about the jacket's condition. The records themselves are definitely in much better shape than the jacket. The jacket is not awful but it definitely has some issues. Maybe G+ depending on your grading scale. I recommend checking out the video I posted in the photos for sure.
