CONDITION

Disc


Labels: NEAR MINT

Just a single light spindle trail on each label.
The mark at the 10 o' clock position on label 1 is a small crease in the paper & not a scratch.

Visual: NEAR MINT

Both surfaces appear MINT viewed in natural light and bear just some wispy sleev removal paper hairlines viewed directly under a halogen desk lamp.
This is essentially a pristine 'as new' disc with absolutely no marks, scuffs or scratches to either side.
Thick, quality, sharp-edged vinyl which lies 100% flat on both sides on the turntable with no dishing or warping.

Audio: NEAR MINT

This disc really has just been played just a few times and there is no crackle or groovewear distortion in either channel or on any track.
Both run-ins & all bands are completely silent and there are no clicks, jumps or repeats anywhere.
A superb copy.


Cover: EXCELLENT

Strong & clean 'thick' card example retaining a perfect high-gloss, unscratched laminate with a few light edge wrinkles but no 'thumbnails' or other creases.
Slight bruising & minor shelfwear to the lower corners but the opening edges have been hardly touched and have no feathering or tears to either side.
The rear panel is bright, clean & white with no discoloration, marks, writing or missing paper.
All flipbacks & the spine are intact, unsplit & undamaged.


Strict visual grading in daylight and directly under a halogen desk lamp.

All discs are carefully play graded in their entirety on a Rega P9 deck with an Ortofon Kontrapunkt 'A' cartridge.

All records are 100% guaranteed. Full refunds given if you are not satisfied
