THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE LIGHT BROWN RSO LABELS ARE IN MINT CONDITION. THERE BASE COLOUR FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE, AND IS ALSO UNRUBBED, AND UNMARKED
THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS PERFECTLY LEGIBLE AND TOTALLY UNRUBBED AND UNWORN
EVEN UNDER A SPOTLIGHT,I CANNOT SEE ANY SPIDER LINES AROUND THE HOLE, WHICH CERTAINLY MEANS THAT THE LP HAS JUST NOT BEEN PLAYED PERHAPS MORE THAN ONCE
THE VINYL
THE VINYL GLEAMS LIKE A BRAND NEW DISC. IT IS ABSOLUTELY MIRROR FINISH LIKE, AND LOOKS AS GOOD TODAY AS THE DAY IT WAS FIRST PRESSED
WHEN OFFERED UP TO INTENSE ILLUMINATION I CAN MAKE OUT JUST TWO WISP[Y HAIRLINES BUT NOTHING TO SUGGEST THAT THIS LP HAS BEEN ON A TURNTABLE MORE THAN ONCE. IT IS QUITE SUPERB
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 ENTIRE ALBUM TOFROM 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
I CANNOT BEGIN TO TELL YOU HOW EXCITED I WAS BY FIND ING AND THEN HEARING THIS ONCE PLAYED LP.THE LP PLAYS MAGNIFICENTLY ALL THE WAY THROUGH BOTH SIDES, WITH A STEREO REPRODUCTION THAT IS PURE FIRST PRESS.
THERE IS NO DISTORTION AT ALL ON ANY PART OF THIS ALBUM, AND NO LOUD CLICKS EITHER
THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS JUST SUPERB, WITH EVERY NOTE HEARD TO PERFECTION
THERE IS THE ODD RANDOM SECOND OF STATIC, AND A COUPLE OF TINY DUST POPS THROUGH THE ENTIRE PLAYTHROUGH
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS VINYL MINT MINUS
DON'T TAKE MY WORD FOR IT THOUGH TAKE A LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF
THE SLEEVE
SEMI FIRST ISSUE MACNEILL SLEEVE
THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT, CLEAN AND FREE FROM ANY MARKS, STAINS OR CREASES. IT ONLY HAS ONE OF THE SMALL ONES THAT GATHER CLOSE TO THE SPINE.THERE ARE NO HEAVY CREASES OR CREASE LINES EITHER. THIS SLEEVE BECAUSE OF THE METALIC GOLD/BRASSY COLOUR OFTEN LOOKS DIRTY, AND IT CAN HIDE GRUBBINESS. I HAVE SEEN MANY THAT I JUST WONT TOUCH FOR THIS REASON, AS THE SURFACE ATTRACTS FINGERMARKS EASILY. THIS ONE IS AS GOOD AS I HAVE SEEN ONE WITH JUST THE BAREST TOUCH OF HANDLING
THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE FREE FROM ANY SHELF WEAR
THE SPINE HAS SOME VERY LIGHT SHELF WEAR AT THE TOP AND BOTTOM TIPS, WHICH YOU WILL BE ABLE TO SEE IN THE CLOSE UPS. THE TYPEFACE IS STILL PERFECTLY LEGIBLE, AND THERE ARE A COUPLE OF SMALL FINGER TO THUMB SQUASHES
THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP
THE REAR SURFACE IS IN THE SAME MAGNIFICENT CONDITON AS THE FRONT,
THE NUMBER ON THE INSERT IS A LOW 20517, AND IS IN MINT CONDITION.
THE INNER SLEEVE IS ALSO IN TOP ORDER, NO SPLITS AND VIRTUALLY UNCREASED
THE HAPPY TO GRADE THE SLEEVE NEAR MINT MINUS
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
