THE RECORD
THE LABELS
THE BROWN PICTURE LABELS ARE IN PRISTINE CONDITION.
THE BASE COLOUR FULLY EXTENDS INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE AND THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS BOTH UNRUBBED AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE.
THERE ARE ZERO VISIBLE SPIDER LINES CLOSE TO THE SPINDLE HOLE.
THE VINYL
SUPERB GLEAMING RECORD WHICH IN DAYLIGHT LOOKS FLAWLESS
WHEN PLACED UNDER SPOTLIGHTS, IT STILL LOOKS PRISTINE, JUST A COUPLE OF VERY FINE AND ALMOST INVISIBLE WISPY HAIRLINES
PLAYING THE RECORD
THE VINYL PLAYS SUPERBLY ALL THE WAY THROUGH BOTH SIDES.
THE FIRST THING TO POINT OUT IS THAT THERE IS NO DISTORTION TO THE SOUND AT ANY POINT, AND THIS MEANS THAT THE MINIMAL PLAY THE LP HAS RECEIVED WAS COMPLETED ON A SYSTEM THAT HAD A CORRECTLY WEIGHTED AND UNWORN STYLUS
NO HEAVY BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND NO LOUD CLICKS OR POPS
NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE AT ALL
SILENT THROUGH THE QUIET PASSAGES AND LINKING GROOVES
A COUPLE OF RANDOM TINY SPECKS OF STATIC LIKE BACKGROUND IN A LINKING GROOVE OR TWO
NO MORE THAN A COUPLE OF TINY DUST POPS OR STATIC TICS
OVERALL A SUPERB STEREO SOUND
I WOULD GRADE THE AUDIO AS NEAR MINT
THE SLEEVE
MATTE SINGLE SLEEVE
THE FRONT SURFACE HAS SOME RECORD IMPRESSION
THE COLOURS ARE STILL DEEP AND RUB FREE
THE CORNERSR ARE RUBBED
THERE ARE A NUMBER OF PRERSSURE LINES AGAINST THE EDGES
THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES HAVE A FEW FLEVCKS OF WHITE UNDERCARD VISIBLE AND RUB TO THE CORNER TIPS
THE SPINE HAS A LITTLE SQUASHING AT THE TOP AND A LITT ERUB IN PLACES
THE TYEPACE IS ALL PERFECTLY LEGIBLE
THE OPENING EDGE IS SHARP WITH JUST A COUPLE OF TINY THUMB NAIL NICKS
THE REAR IS SIMILAR TO THE FRONT
THE SLEEVE OVERALL IS A LITTLE WORN BUT NOT SPLIT ANYWHERE
GRADED VG+
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
