Pennywise - FROM THE ASHES LP - OG 2003 First US Vinyl Pressing

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.


Both sides of the record sound great.  There were no skips and no issues with audio quality.  Audio quality is excellent throughout.  This pressing was very well done!  
FIRST PRESSING IDENTIFIERS Matrix / Runout (Side A): ['Dc Bφs' signature] S-52859-RE-1 OASIS 86664-1 A RE-1 -PENNYWISE- Matrix / Runout (Side B): ['Dc Bφs' signature] S-52860-RE-1 OASIS 86664-1 B RE-1
Includes original inner sleeve/insert. It is in excellent condition but it does have a small seam split on each side.  The record will be placed in a new generic white inner sleeve to prevent any further seam splitting to the inner sleeve.
There are some light surface markings/hairlines but otherwise the vinyl is in great condition.  The labels are clean and in excellent condition.  There are no deep scratches and nothing that affects the audio play.
The jacket has some light storage wear in the corners, nothing very significant.  There are a couple of very light creases that can be seen when you tilt it in the light.  It is a very strong jacket.

*Most sellers either give a very general visual grading or a vague description.  I do my best to be as thorough as possible and describe things in great detail.  I am extremely picky and I realize sometimes this makes things sound worse than they actually are, but I believe that a buyer should not be disappointed when they receive a used album.  They should have an appropriate expectation and deserve as much detail as possible before making a decision.  Please contact me with and questions that you may have prior to purchase.*
