I use the VJM (Vintage Jazz Mart) system (shown below in black type) in grading the 78s and have added my own notes (in blue type) for further information. I try to grade conservatively, and if upon receipt you feel the record has been improperly graded, you may return it for a full refund no questions asked.  I will also note any other visual defects, that I may see, such as scuffing and scratches, rim chips or flakes, needle digs, gouges, drops and hair or lam cracks and provide good clear pictures.   In addition to the visual grading, I will provide a video sound recording link within the description or upon request so that you can determine the overall sound quality before purchasing, hoping to eliminate any problems. The records are played on a Califone and no EQ is ever used. If you have any questions, please contact me! Thank you and I hope to sell some records!

E+ Plays like new, with very, very few signs of handling, such as tiny scuffs from being slipped in and out of jackets. E+ is the highest grade I will use.  A record that is very glossy and might have one or two very minor handling marks but has no visible signs of wear.  N, N- and E+ records are all graded as E+.

E Still very shiny, near new looking, with no visible signs of wear, but a few inaudible scuffs and scratches. The record has few signs of handling and use but any groove wear should be barely detectable using light and magnifying glass and grooves should still be glossy and black.

E- Still shiny but without the lustre of a new record, few light scratches. Very light groove wear, possible minor gray rubbing and few light circular gray grooves starting to appear, but record should still retain glossy black grooves for almost all of the surface.

V+ is an average condition 78 in which scuffs and general use has dulled the finish somewhat. Wear is moderate but playing is generally free from distortion. Surface noise not overly pronounced. Gray wear, handling, more light scuffs and scratches but none are heavy and groove wear may be more apparent, but only visible on less than half of the groove area.

V Moderate, even wear throughout, but still very playable. Surface noise and scratches audible but not intrusive. Record is showing 50% or slightly more gray surface but is uniform wear. The record will still play well even though the surface noise and any distortion is noticeable.

V- Quite playable still, but distortion and heavy greying in loud passages. Music remains loud in most passages. Surface noise and scratches well below music level. Record has wear throughout, several light scratches and scuffs. It may or may not have distortion.

G+ Grey throughout but still serviceable. Music begins to sound muffled. Heavy scratches.

G Quite seriously worn and scratched, but music level is still higher than surface noise.

G- Music still prominent, but wear and scratch damage extensive.

F Most of music remains audible over surface noise, but listening now uncomfortable.

P Unplayable.
