Description
Wow. Coltrane in trio and quintet form, early stuff. It's an amazing album, and here's a chance to own an OG mono press ... beautiful press ... trust me, you want this copy.
See below for more detail:
VINYL: VG+ (8.5 of 10) OG Prestige press. RVG stamp in runouts, Deep Groove (side B only), Bergenfield address, and it's beautiful. A paper scuff here, or very small, light mark there, but overall I'd say it's in the top 15-20% of copies left in the world. It's clean, and it plays beautifully. In all it's mono glory ... trust me, it's really good.
COVER: VG (7.0 of 10) Cover is actually in really good shape as long as you can get past a little odd seam splitting. 2" on bottom of spine, and 2" on bottom seam, middle. It's holding together tightly. Has softer corners and bumping and some age on back. But that gloss and art on front is amazing ... spine is overall really strong other than the 2" split. Still very presentable.
_________________________________________________________________ Now the standard messages:
GRADING: Yes I use standard grading. HOWEVER, I will NEVER use the word "mint" or "near mint" to describe a used LP ... sorry, won't do it. The highest I go is VG+. I use a number after to more represent a combination of how the vinyl looks and how it sounds. 10 is the best. I'll describe what I see in addition. I've found the combination of these two can minimize expectation gaps. But ask questions when in doubt.
CLEANING: Yes. All vinyl is cleaned ... on my own machine I made. Vacuum machine. I wash and rinse with my own formula cleaners -- once with my enzyme cleaner, and rinsed with my own distilled water/alcohol formula. ... this process has worked for me for years.
TESTING: Yes. I've listened to the records I sell. I play on a Lenco L70, via Denon 103 MC cart; tube preamp, a Dynaco ST-70 all tube amp to KLH 17 speakers. An super tubey setup, right!?
SHIPPING: $4.99 for anywhere Media Mail, domestic. Overseas is BY WEIGHT, so check that weight before bidding, you overseas-ers! LPs shipped in a proper box with plastic sleeve, and yes, vinyl shipped outside the sleeve.
RETURNS: Generally a no go, unless you have a damn compelling reason. But if there's a serious problem, I'm sure we can figure it out with a return. I mean, I am an adult ... allegedly. But I do describe accurately, offer time for questions, and I deal in used records, not new stuff ... yes, it's always kind of a gamble buying via eBay, which is why I try to do my best to make an objective attempt to describe the LP in question. ASK QUESTIONS WHEN IN DOUBT. I promise, we can make this an easy transaction
