On offer is an original 1968 pressing of The Beach Boys' and Brian Wilson's classic LP Friends, Capitol ST-2895.
The record plays great, sounds great -- full and bright. The vinyl has its original shine and gloss. Hardly a surface mark, nothing significant. No spindle wear. Grades Excellent or Excellent Minus by the Record Collector magazine definition of Ex: "The record shows some signs of having been played but there is very little lessening in sound quality."
The cover is also Excellent or Ex minus. Crisp and clean. No splits, creasing, tears or writing. There is light wear to edges and corners and a deletion punch hole in the lower left corner. See photos.
The numbering in the dead wax is ST-1-2895-A-3 and ST-2-2895-A-3. That makes the record a product of the Capitol record plant in Los Angeles, according to the Discogs website.
