Description
All records have been play-tested and play through without any skips or jumps. You can find more detailed comments about each track below. I have assigned each LP a conservative overall grade using the Goldmine Standard of record grading. Please note, however, that these are my own opinions, and your listening experience might differ from mine depending on your ears and the equipment (turntable, headphones, cartridge, stylus, etc.) you use for playback.
Please also note that where I mention surface noise/crackle, it is entirely possible that these issues can be improved/eliminated depending on the cleaning method and/or the level of static in your playback room. These descriptions are simply based on my own playback experience, and I tried to err on the side of caution when assigning a grade.
All records have been cleaned and will be shipped in new inner sleeves inside a padded mailer.
For your reference, the grading scheme I employ is, from worst to best: G<VG<EX<NM
If a record falls between two grades, I will indicate such with a + sign (e.g., a VG+ record would sound better than a VG record but not quite as good as an EX record).
If you have any questions about this listing, please feel free to contact me and I will do my best to assist you. Thanks for looking!
