Description
Please read this entire listing. You are bidding on vinyl records from my personal ongoing collection (started in 1976). I will do my best to describe my records accurately. See my other auctions for more great vinyl.
ARTIST – Captain Beefheart and his Magic Band
ALBUM TITLE – Troutmask Replica – Third Man Volume 36
VINYL RATING – Mint/ Unopened
COVER RATING – Mint/ Unopened
NOTES – New, unopened package from Third Man Records
Any questions, just ask. I rate loosely using the Goldmine Scale (Please see below for my grading explanations and terminology). Please keep in mind that different turntables produce different sound qualities and your opinion may differ slightly than mine. My rating of VG+ may be an EX to you and vice versa. I play test all my vinyl but do, on occasion, miss a flaw. My ratings reflect the actual sound of the vinyl in my opinion, on my turntables. If there is a major aesthetic flaw in the vinyl itself I will try and note it but I don’t note every little scuff or mark. To me, vinyl is about how the platter sounds, not how it looks (warping is the exception). Any known skipping, looping, spooning, warping or known issues will be addressed in the notes. PLEASE NOTE; when I say a record has an issue, that’s on my primary (Dual CS 503-1 at + 2.5 grams on my tone arm) or backup (Realistic linear track) TT. If you win an album with a disclosed imperfection, please don’t message me, mad because it has that issue. Thanks. My feedback speaks for itself, bid with confidence. See my other auctions for more great vinyl.
RATINGS
Mint 10/10 – Vinyl still sealed, new in its original shrink wrap.
NM 9/10– Vinyl may have a light pop or tick here and there.
EX 8/10 - May have light pops and ticks throughout that aren’t readily noticeable, except between tracks or during soft passages.
VG+ 7/10 - May have light pops and ticks throughout and/or moderate pops, ticks or crackle here and there that are noticeable during playback but shouldn’t distract from the music.
VG 6/10 – Along with possible light noise throughout, moderate ticks, pops or crackle as well, apparent during playback, but not overtaking the music. In my experience, the majority of vintage vinyl rates VG.
VG- 5/10 – Along with possible light to moderate noise throughout, loud pops, ticks or crackle present here and there, noticeable during playback.
G 4/10 – Loud popping, cracking or crackle throughout, heard during playback.
F 3/10 – Loud popping, cracking or crackle throughout, overtaking the music.
P 2/10 – Records that may have label value only. Unlistenable due to multiple skips, loops and loud surface noise.
F 1/10 – Vinyl that, when you put it on your turntable, you fly right back to take it off because you just know it’s about to tear your needle right off the tone arm. If you lived in the shadow of a mountain, I always thought you could use these to shingle a house with or maybe play Frisbee with your dog. I guess I try to find a silver lining in everything though.
Commonly used terms and their meanings.
DEAD WAX; The area on the record between the last song and label.
DEMO; Demonstration record, not commercially available.
DNAP; Does Not Affect Play
FIRST PRESSING; refers to the original version of any given record, usually the most rare and sought after.
GATEFOLD; An album cover that opens like a book.
INSERT; Posters, stickers or order forms for band memorabilia, originally included with the record.
LOOP; A skip that stops progression of the needle and plays the “same groove” over and over. Manual movement of the needle is required to continue play.
LP; long playing 33 1/3 rpm, most 12” vinyl records.
MATRIX NUMBER; The numbers, characters and writing in the dead wax, used to identify the individual records origin.
PROMO; A first pressing record, usually sent to and used by radio stations prior to the albums public release.
RE-ISSUE; A record whose original pressing plates have been destroyed and have been pressed with new plates.
RE-PRESS; A later run pressed from the original pressing plates.
SKIP; A jump in the needle over a groove or two that does not stop play.
ULTRASONIC CLEANED; is a process whereby high-frequency sound waves create cavitation on the vinyl surface in a bath of water and cleaning agents. The cavitation makes tiny bubbles, forcing dust and sediment from the record grooves and recesses in a minimally abrasive but powerful manner.
S1, S2, T1, T2; Side 1, Side 2, Track 1, Track 2. So S1T1= Side 1, Track 1.
Bid with confidence, check out my feedback! Buyer pays $5.00 USPS MEDIA MAIL anywhere in the continental USA. I will discount shipping for multiple listings ($1.00 per each additional platter). I will send you an invoice reflecting any shipping discounts. I ship every Monday. If you’ve paid for your auction by Monday morning before 9:00am EST, it will be on its way, typically by noon. I’ll send you a tracking number afterwards. Slow-paying bidders, I will send you a payment reminder 2 days after auctions end. Non-paying bidders, I will open a non-paying bidder case through Ebay two days after that. I pack well, using cardboard record mailers, always minding the corners. I ship (and store my own records for that matter) in a plain paper inner sleeve unless stated otherwise. Record and cover, including original inner sleeve and any inserts (if included) will be separate, inside a plastic outer sleeve to reduce cover wear, etc. The plastic sleeve may show wear since I’ve owned some of these for years. Please clean all records by hand before playing. I accept PAYPAL ONLY. I will not accept any other form of payment. Thanks.
I will leave positive feedback once I receive payment and ship.
