THE RECORDS

 

THE LABELS

THE  LABELS ARE IN SUPERB CONDITION. THE BLACKBASE COLOUR HAS REMAINED UNRUBBED, AND THERE IS NO COLOUR RUB ANYWHERE. THIS COLOUR FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE SILVER TYPEFACE IS ALSO IN TOP CONDITION

A CLOSE EXAMINATION OF THE SPINDLE HOLES REVEALS JUST 2-3 SMALL SPIDER LINE CLOSE BY INDICATING THE VERY THAT THIS LP HAS HAD JUST A COUPLE OF VERY CAREFUL PLAYS. IT ALSO SHOWS RESIDUAL VINYL STILL ATTACHED TO THE SPINDLE HOLE

THE VINYL

THE LP SHINES LIKE A POLISHED MIRROR. THERE ARE NO MARKS AT ALL ON THE SURFACE, AND IN DAYLIGHT IT LOOKS  LOOK FLAWLESS, AND  EVEN WHEN PLACED UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS ONLY A FEW WISPY HAIRLINES AND ONE SMALL SURFACE HANDLING LINE VISIBLE, PLUS SOME DULL EMBEDDED STREAKS (ALL NON SOUNDING)

PLAYING THE RECORD

I BELIEVE THAT IF YOU ARE GOING TO SPEND YOUR MONEY ON A FANTASTIC COLLECTIBLE VINYL, THAT YOU SHOULD BE GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO HEAR WHAT YOU ARE BUYING. I HAVE THEREFORE INVESTED IN THE SOFTWARE THAT ALLOWS YOU TO DO JUST THAT.

I HAVE RECORDED THE ENTIRE LP FROM START TO FINISH AS I DO NOW WITH ALL MY LISTINGS, AS I FIRMLY BELIEVE THAT BIDDERS WOULD WELCOME THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR THE RECORD BEFORE LAYING A BID.

THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS

THE DISC PLAYS THROUGH BRILLIANTLY , AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW FANTASTIC THIS RECORD SOUNDS.

THE SILENT BITS ARE SILENT, AND THE MUSIC COMES THROUGH CRISPLY AND CLEARLY. THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS JUST MAGNIFICENT. I CANNOT BE CRITICAL OF THIS REPRODUCTION  IN ANY WAY AT ALL.

THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO DISTORTION TO ANY PART OF THE ALBUM, AND ABSOLUTELY NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE WHATSOEVER.

NO LOUD CLICKS AND NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE

ALL I HEARD WAS THE ODD SECOND OR TWO OF STATIC IN A COUPLE OF LINKING GROOVES

NO DUST POPS AND NO MORE THAN A COUPLE OF TINY STATIC TICS DURING THE ENTIRE PLAY THROUGH

I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS VINYL  MINT MINUS FOR THE AUDIO

PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO IT AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF THOUGH AGAINST YOUR PERSONAL; STANDARDS

 

 

THE SLEEVE

 

SEMI LAMINATED SINGLE SLEEVE IS IN NEAR PRISTINE CONDITION.

THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT, CLEAN AND FREE FROM ANY MARKS OR STAINS. THERE ARE NO HEAVY CREASES, CREASE LINES, OR BENDS, OR DENTS, AND THE DELICATE COLOURS HAVE ALL BEEN RETAINED

THERE IS ONE MINUSCULE PRESSURE LINE CLOSE TO THE SPINE. JUST TWO THE TOP EDGE, TWO ON THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE

NO RECORD SHAPE OR ANY RING WEAR EITHER. THE TOP LEFT CORNER TIP HAS A MINUSCULE SPECK OF PAPER LIFTED

THE TOP EDGE IS PRISTINE WITH ALL OF THE COLOURS FULLY RUNNING FROM CORNER TO CORNER. BOTH CORNER TIPS ARE UNBLEMISHED. THE BOTTOM EDGE IS IDENTICAL WITH A PIN PRICK OF RUB ON THE RIGHT CORNER TIP END

THE SPINE IS INCREDIBLY TOTALLY UNSQUASHED AND EVERY LETTER OF THE TYPEFACE IS PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. PERFECT COLOURS A REALLY SUPERB EXAMPLE OF THIS SPINE

THE OPENING IS STILL RAZOR SHARP AND SHOWS WHY THIS ALBUM HAS BARELY BEEN OUT OF THE SLEEVE. THERE ARE JUST A COUPLE OF TINY THUMB NAIL NICKS NEAR THE BOTTOM

THE REAR SURFACE IS STILL VERY WHITE AND GLOSSY AND LIKE THE FRONT HAS NO RING WEAR OR RECORD SHAPE, AND JUST ONE PRESSURE LINE ON THE BOTTOM EDGE

THE GLOSSY BLACK CARD INNER SLEEVE IS IN SUPERB UNSPLIT CONDITION. A COUPLE OF TINY CREASE LINES

THE SLEEVE EASILY GRADES MINT MINUS
