THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE BLACK AND WHITE STATESIDE LABELS ARE IN MAGNIFICENT CONDITION. THE JET BLACK BASE COLOUR IS JUST IMMACULATE. THERE IS NO RUBBING OR WEAR OF ANY DESCRIPTION. THE SPINDLE HOLE IS ALSO TOTALLY UNWORN. THE SILVER TYPEFACE IS IN ADDITION PRISTINE AND EVERY LETTER PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. I CANNOT SEE ANY SPIDER LINES AROUND THE SPINDLE HOLE AT ALL. THE FACTORY SAMPLE STICKER IS FIRMLY ADHERED TO SIDE ONE
THE VINYL
THIS VINYL GLEAMS LIKE NEW, AND HAS LOST NONE OF ITS ORIGINAL LUSTRE. THERE ARE NO VISIBLE HANDLING MARKS OR LINES,AND IT LOOKS TOTALLY FLAWLESS IN DAYLIGHT, AND EVEN WHEN PLACED UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE. A PERFECT DISC.
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 WHOLE LP FROM START TO FINISH AS I DO WITH EVERY ALBUM THAT I LIST, AS I 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
THE LP PLAYS THROUGH BRILLIANTLY ON BOTH SIDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW FANTASTIC THIS LP SOUNDS.
THE REPRODUCTION IS PERFECT WITH EVERY NOTE BEING CRISP AND CLEAR.
NO DISTORTION TO THE SOUND WHATSOEVER
NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE
NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND NO LOUD CLICKS
NO STATIC ANYWHERE EVEN IN THE LINKING GROOVES
ALL YOU WILL HEAR THE OCCASIONAL TINY DUST POP
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS VINYL MINT MINUS!!!
THE SLEEVE
GARROD AND LOFTHOUSE TEXTURED SINGLE SLEEVE
THE FRONT SURFACE OF THIS INCREDIBLE SLEEVE IS JUST MAGNIFICENT. THE FIRST THING TO POINT OUT THAT THE TEXTURED AREA IS JUST UNBLEMISHED. NO RUBBING AND NO LOSS OF COLOUR WHATSOEVER, APART FROM ONE LIGHT SLIVER JUST ABOVE THE BOTTOM EDGE.
THERE ARE JUST THREE MINUSCULE LINES NEXT TO THE SPINE. NONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, TWO ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE
THE TOP EDGE IS PRISTINE AND FREE FROM ANY SHELF WEAR WHATSOEVER. ALL OF THE DELICATE COLOURS ARE THERE AND FULLY RUN FROM CORNER TO CORNER. EVEN THE CORNER TIPS ARE UNBLEMISHED. THE BOTTOM EDGE HAS JUST A FEW WHITE SPECKS ALONG THE SURFACE AND A LITTLE WEAR TO THE RIGHT CORNER.
THE SPINE HAS THE TAPERED ENDS AND IS FULLY COLOURED WITH JUST A PIN PRICK OF WHITE VISIBLE ON THE TOP AND BOTTOM TIPS. THE TYPEFACE IS ALL PRISTINE AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE
THE OPENING EDGE IS STILL RAZOR SHARP AND CLEARLY SHOWS WHY THE LP HAS HARDLY BEEN OUTSIDE OF THE SLEEVE. THERE ARE A COUPLE OF REALLY TINY THUMB NAIL NICKS NEAR THE BOTTOM
THE REAR SURFACE AGAIN HAS A PERFECT TEXTURED COLOUR. THERE ARE JUST TWO MICROSCOPIC LINES NEXT TO THE SPINE AND THAT'S ALL.
THE POLY LINED INNER IS PERFECTLY WHITE, FLAT AND UNSPLIT. ONE LIGHT WRINKLE LINE ON THE TOP RIGHT CORNER
HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE MINT MINUS
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
