Description
Offered here as a complete bundle — all four Ash studio album test pressings, each an authentic pre-production approval copy pressed directly from the lacquer master.
These were created in tiny quantities (typically 5–10 worldwide) for artist and label sign-off, ensuring final mastering quality before full manufacturing.
They were never intended for public circulation and are exponentially rarer than promo or white label editions.

Collector Notes:
• Test pressings are among the rarest physical artefacts in the vinyl manufacturing chain.
• Each disc represents the earliest playable version of the album — directly approved by the artist and label.
• For serious collectors only; extremely unlikely to ever be reunited as a full set again.
An extraordinary opportunity to secure the complete run of Ash’s key studio test pressings, spanning their defining decade.
