THE RECORD

 

THE LABELS

THE BLUE  LABELS ARE IN PRISTINE CONDITION. 

THERE IS NOT ONE BLEMISH ON THEM AND THE COLOUR FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. 

THE SPINDLE HOLE SHOWS JUST T3-4 SPIDER LINES, SHOWING JUST HOW LITTLE THIS LP HAS BEEN NEAR A TURNTABLE

THE VINYL

THE VINYL HAS RETAINED ALL OF THE ORIGINAL LUSTRE AND SHEEN AND IN DAYLIGHT  LOOKS ABSOLUTELY MINT. 

EVEN WHEN PLACED UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE OTHER THAN A COUPLE OF WISPY HAIRLINES

AN OUTSTANDING EXAMPLE

PLAYING THE RECORD

I BELIEVE THAT IF YOU ARE GOING TO SPEND YOUR MONEY ON A FANTASTIC COLLECTABLE 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 DOUBLE LP FROM START TO FINISH AS I DO NOW WITH ALL MY LISTINGS AS I FIRMLY BELIEVE THAT BIDDERS WOULD LOVE 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

THIS VINYL PLAYS WITHOUT ANY BACKGROUND CRACKLE WHATSOEVER, 

NO DISTORTION AT ANY POINT TO THE STEREO REPRODUCTION, SO NO GROOVE WEAR

NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE 

A CLEAR , AND LOUD STEREO REPRODUCTION 

ALL I HEARD DURING THE PLAYTHROUGH WERE A FEW TINY AND RANDOM STATIC LIKE TICS AND JUST A COUPLE OF SPLIT SECONDS OF BARELY AUDIBLE STATIC IN A LINKING GROOVE OR TWO

THE LP JUST HASN'T BEEN PLAYED  MUCH AND HAS A REMARKABLE AUDIO PERFORMANCE AND  I AM HAPPY TO GRADE THE AUDIO NEAR MINT

BUT DON'T TAKE MY WORD FOR IT TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF AGAINST YOUR OWN STANDARDS

  

THE SLEEVE 

MATT NON LAMINATED  SINGLE SLEEVE

 THE FRONT SURFACE HAS SOME WAVINESS TO IT. I SUSPECT AT SOME POINT IT HAS GOT DAMP

HAVING SAID THIS THE COLOURS ARE ALL STILL RICH AND VIBRANT 

NO RING WEAR  JUST A VERY LIGHT SHADOW OF RECORD SHAPE

THERE ARE NINE SMALL PRESSURE LINES NEXT TO THE SPINE. TWO  ALONG THE TOP EDGE, FOUR ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE  , AND ZERO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE.

THE TOP EDGE HAS ALL OF THE COLOUR FULLY RUNNING ACROSS FROM CORNER TO CORNER. UNBLEMISHED CORNER TIPS AS WELL

THE BOTTOM EDGE IS ALSO IN NIVE CONDITION, JUST A LITTLE RUB TO THE RIGHT CORNER 

THE SPINE HAS LEGIBLE TEXT AND JUST A SMALL BIT OF RUB AT THE TIP ENDS/

THE OPENING EDGE IS STILL SHARP WITH SOME WEAR AT THE BOTTOM

THE REAR SURFACE LIKE THE FRONT HAS SOME WAVINESS, SOME RING RUB AND A SMALL SCUFF/HOLE  AT THE BOTTOM LEFT CORNER AREA

THE POLY LINED INNER SLEEVE IS THE ORIGINAL  ONE WHICH IS IN SPLIT FREE CONDITION

ONLY DUE TO THE SMALL SPLIT I AM VERY HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE VG+

 

GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
