CUSTOMER UPDATE SEPTEMBER 2022
For the past 2 years GG_Supersounds has been listing records that in the main are in Mint or very close to it condition. We continue to track down and list the very best records that we are able to for our ever growing customer base For those that have been with us over that period of time will know that there are two business partners listing on the site. One from Horsham and the other from Bognor Regis From time to time this has been confusing for our customers as there often 2 invoices to pay where purchases are made from different locations by one customer To rectify this we have decided that the Horsham location will continue to list on GG_Supersounds, whilst the Bognor Regis location will now list on GG-Superstuff.
IT WILL STILL BE POSSIBLE TO BUY FROM BOTH LOCATIONS AND HAVE COMBINED SHIPPING, BUT THIS WILL BE RELIANT OF THE TWO OF US MEETING UP, AND WILL THEREFORE USUALLY TAKE MORE TIME, BUT IT IS DO-ABLE
Nothing Else Changes - Still the same superb selection of the best records will be available

THE RECORD
THE LABELS
ORIGINAL YELLOW AND BLACK MONO LABELS IN EXCEPTIONAL CONDITION. THE BLACK BASE COLOUR AND YELLOW LOGO'S ARE BOTH UNRUBBED .THE COLOURS RUN UNINTERRUPTED INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE, THERE ARE A NUMBER OF SPIDER LINES AROUND THE SPINDLE HOLE
THE VINYL
THE HEAVYWEIGHT DISC HAS A VERY HEALTHY SHINE TO IT. IN DAYLIGHT IT LOOKS FLALWLESS
UNDER SPOTLIGHTS I CAN SEE A FEW WISPY HAIRLINES, A COUPLE OF SMALL SURFACE HANDLING LINES AND A LITTLE DULLING IN THE RUN OUT GROOVE ON SIDE A
THE TEST PLAY
THIS STEREO ALBUM PLAYS TO NEAR PERFECTION.
THE FIRST AND MOST IMPORTANT THING TO TALK ABOUT IS THE COMPLETE CLARITY OF THE STEREO REPRODUCTION. THERE IS NOT ONE JOT OF DISTORTION ANYWHERE, AND THE SOUND IS AS CLEAR AND SHARP AS IT POSSIBLE COULD BE.
THE EARLY STEREO BEATLES RECORDINGS WERE ALL JUST INCREDIBLE. MANY MANY COPIES WERE PLAYED ON SYSTEMS THAT HAD A STYLUS THAT WAS TOO HEAVY OR WORN AND CAUSED INVISIBLE GROOVE WEAR. THIS WOULD ONLY BE SPOTTED OR SHOULD I SAY HEARD WHEN PLAYING THE ALBUM AND WOULD TAKE THE FORM OF BEHIND THE MUSIC STATIC AND BE CONTINUOUS. THIS VINYL HAS NONE OF THAT
THE RUN IN IS NEAR SILENT, THE LINKING GROOVES ARE NEAR SILENT, AND THE RUN OUT IS NEAR SILENT
NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE WHATSOEVER AT ANY POINT. NO VINYL NOISE AND JUST THE ODD SECOND OR TWO OF STATIC LIKE BACKGROUND, WHICH CAN ONLY BE HEARD IN A COUPLE OF THE LINKING GROOVES AND MOST SILENT PASSAGES
I HEAD JUST A COUPLE OF TINY TICS DURING THE WHOLE PLAYTHROUGH
PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LONG LISTEN AND YOU BE THE JUDGE OF THE QUALITY OF THIS SUPERB DISC
I JUST HAVE TO GRADE THIS EX+
THE SLEEVE
SUPERB GARROD AND LOFTHOUSE PATENTS PENDING SLEEVE
THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND CLEAN, NO MARKS OR STAINS NO FOLDS OR BENDS, AND NO LAMINATE PEEL, FLAKE OR EVEN LIFT
THE LAMINATE GLEAMS LIKE A POLISHED MIRROR
THERE ARE TEN SMALL LAMINATE PRESSURE LINES CLOSE TO THE SPINE AND SEVEN ALONG THE TOP EDGE. FOUR ON THE BOTTOM EDGE AND TWO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE
THE CORNER TIPS ON THE BOTTOM HAVE SOME RUB
THE TOP EDGE IS FULLY LAMINATED WITH A SPECK OF RUB TO THE RIGHT CORNER TIP
THE BOTTOM EDGE HAS A SMALL SCUFF IN THE MIDDLE AND RUB TO THE RIGHT CORNER
THE SPINE IS FLAT AND UNSQUASHED. THE TOP TIP HAS A DOT OF RUB. THEY TEXT IS PERFECTLY LEGIBLE
THE REAR SURFACE IS UNLAMINATED AND HAS REMAINED IN VERY CLEAN CONDITION. THERE IS NO RUBBING TO THE DELICATE BLACK AREAS, WHILST THE WHITE SURFACE IS STILL VERY WHITE. THERE IS SMALL STICKER REMOVAL PATCH ON THE BOTTOM WHERE I SUSPECT THE ORIGINAL SHOP NAME WAS SITUATED
THE FLIPBACKS ARE PRISTINE, PERFECTLY ADHERED AND NO CRACKS
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE EX+
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
