VG+           Some surface noise in quiet passages, occasional crackling in louder passages, possible slightly audible light scratches/scuffs

*** Please note that play grading is somewhat subjective and can depend on the quality of the playback system and proper setup/cartridge alignment.  Play grading is performed using audiophile grade equipment that is adequately revealing of vinyl condition.  Assessment performed on several track-to-track transitions.  The run-in grooves and first few seconds of the first track are not used for assessing play grade.  Generally, a play grade of VG+ or better will be highly enjoyable and surface noise not a distraction on most playback systems.
