CUSTOMER UPDATE SEPTEMBER 2022
For the past 2 years GG_Supersounds has been listing records that in the main are in Mint or very close to it condition. We continue to track down and list the very best records that we are able to for our ever growing customer base For those that have been with us over that period of time will know that there are two business partners listing on the site. One from Horsham and the other from Bognor Regis From time to time this has been confusing for our customers as there often 2 invoices to pay where purchases are made from different locations by one customer To rectify this we have decided that the Horsham location will continue to list on GG_Supersounds, whilst the Bognor Regis location will now list on GG-Superstuff.
IT WILL STILL BE POSSIBLE TO BUY FROM BOTH LOCATIONS AND HAVE COMBINED SHIPPING, BUT THIS WILL BE RELIANT OF THE TWO OF US MEETING UP, AND WILL THEREFORE USUALLY TAKE MORE TIME, BUT IT IS DO-ABLE
Nothing Else Changes - Still the same superb selection of the best records will be available



For the protection of all concerned we only send signed for and tracked and signed

THE RECORDS

 

THE LABELS

THE BLACK BASE COLOUR ON THE LABELS IS JUST MINT. TOTALLY UNMARKED AND STRETCHES FULLY INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE WHITE TYPEFACE AND LOGOS ARE ALL PRISTINE AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE.THERE ARE NO SPIDER LINES NEAR THE HOLE.

THE VINYL

INCREDIBLE GLOSSY MINT CONDITION VINYL,

LOOKS TOTALLY FLAWLESS IN DAYLIGHT, AND EVEN WHEN PLACED UNDERSPOTLIGHTS THERE IS JUST ONE TINY HANDLING LINE ON THE DEAD WAX OUYER RIM OF SIDE ONE

 

THE TEST PLAY

THE LP PLAYS THROUGH MAGNIFICENTLY ON BOTH SIDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW FANTASTIC THIS LP SOUNDS.

A STUNNING LOUDLY CUT VINYL WHICH PERFORMS TO THE HIGHEST STANDARD

THERE IS NO  BACKGROUND CRACKLE AT ANY POINT AND NO LOUD CLICKS EITHER.

THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS JUST SUBLIME WITH EVERY NOTE HEARD AS WAS INTENDED

NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE ANYWHERE, AND JUST 1-2 BARELY AUDIBLE SPECKS OF STATIC IN A COUPLE OF LINKING GROOVES

NO TICS OR POPS AT ALL

WE ARE HAPPY TO GRADE THIS AS MINT MINUS!!!

PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF

 

 

 

 

THE SLEEVE

 

SUPERB UNLAMINATED GATEFOLD SLEEVE

THIS SLEEVE CAN SUFFER BADLY FROM COLOUR LOSS TO THE DUSTY JET BLACK FRONT SURFACE, BUT HERE WE HAVE ONE THAT HAS BEEN VERY CAREFULLY LOOKED AFTER. THERE IS  NO COLOUR LOSS WHATSOEVER

A VERY LIGHT SHADOW OF A SHOP STICKER MARK IN THE TOP RIGHT CORNER

THERE IS NO RING WEAR OR RECORD SHAPE EITHER.

NO HEAVY CREASE LINES AND NO BENDS. USUALLY THERE ARE NUMEROUS PRESSURE LINES NEAR THE SPINE WHICH SHOW WHITE THROUGH THE BLACK SURFACE, BUT ON THIS STUNNING EXAMPLE THERE ARE ABSOLUTELY NO PRESSURE LINES WHATSOEVER

THE EMBOSSED JAZZ LOGO IS PRISTINE

THE TOP EDGES ARE IMMACULATE. ONE BLACK AND ONE WHITE AND ONE BLACK. NO LOSS OF COLOUR AND UNBLEMISHED CORNER TIPS

THE BOTTOM EDGES ARE SIMILAR WITH JUST A TINT SPECK OF RUB ON THE RIGHT CORNER TIP

THE SPINE IS ALSO IN PRISTINE CONDITION. 100% FLAT AND UNSQUASHED.

NONE OF THE BLACK HAS RUBBED AWAY,  AND THE WHITE TYPEFACE IS ALL PERFECTLY LEGIBLE

THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP AND DOESN'T EVEN HAVE ANY THUMB NAIL NICKS SHOWING JUST HOW LITTLE THIS LP HAS BEEN OUT OF THE SLEEVE.

THE REAR SURFACE IS EVERY BIT AS GOOD AS THE FRONT . THE WHITE SURFACE HAS REMAINED BRILLIANT WHITE ONLY HAS THE ABSOLUTE BAREST TOUCH OF HANDLING AROUND THE PERIMETER EDGES.

AGAIN THE EMBOSSED JAZZ LOGO IS IMMACULATE

OPENING THE GATEFOLD REVEALS A PRISTINE PAIR OF PANELS THAT MAKE UP A GREAT SHOT OF THE BAND SETTING UP

ONE WAY TO TELL IF YOU HAVE A FIRST PRESS IS TO REMOVE THE INNER SLEEVE WHICH HAS TO BE MADE OF CARD AND FULLY LAMINATED, AS THIS ONE IS. IT IS ALSO IN PRISTINE CONDITION, JUST A COUPLE OF EDGE PRESSURE LINES

THE ORIGINAL 3 PANEL BICYCLE RACE POSTER IS IN EXCEPTIONAL AS NEW CONDITION. STILL PERFECTLY ATTACHED TO THE EDGE OF THE COVER AND NOT LOOSE LIKE THE VAST MAJORITY

THIS SLEEVE GRADES MINT MINUS WITH EASE

AN OUTSTANDING COPY OF A CLASSIC ALBUM

 

 

 

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