THE RECORD
THE LABELS
THE RED BOXED LABELS ARE IN PRISTINE CONDITION.
THE COLOUR FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE.
NO MARKS OR WRITING
THE SPINDLE HOLE SHOWS ONE TINY SPIDER LINE, SHOWING JUST HOW LITTLE THIS LP HAS BEEN NEAR A TURNTABLE
THE VINYL
THE VINYL HAS RETAINED ALL OF THE ORIGINAL LUSTRE AND SHEEN AND IN DAYLIGHT LOOKS ABSOLUTELY MINT.
EVEN WHEN PLACED UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE OTHER THAN A COUPLE OF FINE WISPY SLEEVE WITHDRAWAL HAIRLINES
A GLEAMING MARK FREE RECORD IN SUBLIME CONDITION
PLAYING THE RECORD
I BELIEVE THAT IF YOU ARE GOING TO SPEND YOUR MONEY ON A FANTASTIC COLLECTABLE 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 ENTIRE DOUBLE LP FROM START TO FINISH AS I DO NOW WITH ALL MY LISTINGS AS I FIRMLY 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
THIS VINYL PLAYS WITHOUT ANY BACKGROUND CRACKLE WHATSOEVER, AND SHOULD BECAUSE THE DISC CLEARLY HAS NOT BEEN PLAYED MORE THAN A COUPLE OF TIMES
NO DISTORTION AT ANY POINT TO THE STEREO REPRODUCTION, SO NO GROOVE WEAR
NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE
A CLEAR , AND LOUD STEREO REPRODUCTION
THERE ARE SO MANY QUIET OR NEAR SILENT PASSAGES ON THIS ALBUM AND IT IS AN ABSOLUTE JOY TO LISTEN TO WITHOUT ANY BACKGROUND WHATSOEVER
NO MORE THAN A COUPLE OF RANDOM BARELY AUDIBLE SPECKS OF STATIC LIKE BACKGROUND IN THE MOST SILENT PASSAGES
NO DUST POPS DURING THE PLAY
THE LP JUST HASN'T BEEN PLAYED AND HAS A REMARKABLE AUDIO PERFORMANCE AND I AM HAPPY TO GRADE THE AUDIO MINT MINUS
BUT DON'T TAKE MY WORD FOR IT TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF AGAINST YOUR OWN STANDARDS
THE SLEEVE
LAMINATED FRONT CLOUT & BAKER SINGLE SLEEVE
THE FRONT SURFACE HAS A VERY GLOSSY LAMINATE
NO RING WEAR JUST SOME RECORD IMPRESSION WHEN ANGLED INTO THE LIGHT
THE CORNER TIPS HAVE A LITTLE SPECK OF RUB
THERE ARE EIGHT TINY PRESSURE LINES BY THE SPINE, PLUS A SLIVER OF LAMINATE LIFT ALONGSIDE. TWO ALONG THE TOP EDGE, THREE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE , AND TWO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE. PLUS A LIGHT CREASE LINE ACROSS THE TOP RIGHT CORNER
THE TOP EDGE HAS ALL OF THE LAMINATE RUNNING ACCROSS THE SURFACE . THE BOTTOM EDGE IS SIMILAR ALTHOUGH THE RIGHT CORNER TIP IS RUBBED
THE SPINE IS FULLY LAMINATED WITH PERFECT TYPEFACE . ONE SMALL CRACK TO THE LAMINATE NEAR THE BOTTOM AND A DOT OF RUB TO THE TIP ENDS
THE OPENING EDGE HAS SOME BURRING TO THE ONCE SHARP SURFACE
THE REAR SURFACE IS GRUBBY PARTICULARLY AT THE EDGES WHERE THERE IS SIGNS OF HANDLING AND AGEING
THE ORIGINAL POLY LINED DIE CUT INNER IS IN SUPER CONDITION.
I AM VERY HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE EX
