Description
This is a CBS Half Speed Master audiophile extended range pressing of this LP. It sounds absolutely incredible.
Here's the important part - the LP itself. I'm a fanatic when it comes to LP care. This LP is in Near Mint condition. Every album I own gets the same treatment:
- The original paper sleeve is immediately discarded and replaced with a quality anti-static sleeve on first play. I don't even slide the LP out if it's a cheap paper sleeve, I tear it off to avoid any paper friction whatsoever.
- Each LP when played is carefully removed from the anti-static sleeve and shot with a Discwasher anti-static gun, and placed on a Discwasher anti-static mat on my LP player, which is outfitted with a quality elliptical needle that is kept clean with a Discwasher needle cleaner. The arm is properly balanced, angled, and weighted to avoid excessive friction with the vinyl.
- It is then wet cleaned with a Discwasher cleaner to remove every hint of dust and contamination that may damage the vinyl. The Discwasher brush itself is cleaned before and after removing all the dust off the LP.
- All LPs are only handled by the edge ONLY - no fingerprints, ever!
- I NEVER play a track or record twice in a row to avoid overheating the vinyl.
All my LPs are always clean from dust and any other contaminants that may get permanently etched into the vinyl. I have NEVER played an LP without a good cleaning. My LPs are SPOTLESS and have never been played with any dust or crap on them, ever. You'll be getting an album cleaner than new!
This LPs has not been played in over 20 years.
If you're a collector that values the pure sound of a vinyl recording, this is the one for you. I am the original owner of this LP and it has never been used and abused by anyone else so I can guarantee it's been treated in the best way possible.
Note that there's no point in taking a picture of the bare vinyl LP since taking it out of the sleeve means it immedately gets coated with any nearby static junk in the air, and I didn't have time to clean every LP after taking it out for a snapshot. Rest assured that the LP, safely tucked into the sleeve, is a pristine, perfectly clean LP, so there's no point in getting it dusty before I sell it to you!
All LPs are carefully packed and shipped in an LP shipping box with a cardboard stiffener, and the LP is removed from the cover to avoid splitting during shipment.
Regardless of my love and care, accidents do happen on rare occasion and since I simply don't have the time to listen to every single LP to confirm that they have no pops or scratches, I can't absolutely guarantee that the vinyl is in perfect condition. If by some chance you do wind up with a scratch or major pop of any kind, please let me know and I'll be happy to work something out with you, up to and including a return.
Please see my other auctions for more John McLaughlin LPs! I will gladly combine shipping on multiple LPs. I only charge what the post office charges, no more, no less.
