THE BEATLES - WITH THE 1963 PMC 1206 XEX 447-7N/448-7N DECCA CONTRACT UK MONO


Note: All records are professionally cleaned prior to grading on an Okki Nokki RCM using L’Art Du Son cleaning fluid. This does not restore a record to brand new, but rather removes the majority of dust and dirt to leave a record (and it’s audio) as clean as possible.

Sleeve

The sleeve appears to be in G+ condition with a tear opening and wear along this edge, some discolouration and general shelf and usage wear from over the years (see pictures).


Vinyl

Visually the record appears to be in VG+ condition with a few light scratches and some sleeve marks when checked under a clear white LED bulb. I have listened to the album in full and to me it sounds excellent. There is some light surface noise between tracks and in quieter passages. I noticed a couple of ticks or pops, however the sound from this album really does show just how well pressed these original albums were.

For a full system break down see further down the listing.



Record Collectors Grading System
MINT (M): The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.
EXCELLENT (EX): The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and / or creasing.
VERY GOOD (VG): The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.
GOOD (G): The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration, etc.
The use of + or - allows for items that fall between the above grades.
Play Testing

Unfortunately as this is not my full time job, I am only able to visually grade records.

Audio quality may vary based on your Hi-Fi system.

For the records I have noted as being listened to, they are played on the following reference setup:


Linn Sondek LP12, Ekos, ESC’d Troika, Naim Stageline

Naim Nait XS-2, NAC-5, Naim Allae

All records are sent in record mailers with stiffener and ‘DO NOT BEND’ labels
