THE LABELS
BOTH ORANGE LABELS ARE IN PRISTINE CONDITION. THE BASE COLOUR IS RICH AND VIBRANT AND IS UNMARKED AND FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE.
THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS PERFECTLY LEGIBLE, AND A CLOSE EXAMINATION OF THE SPINDLE HOLE REVEALS JUST ONE REALLY SMALL SPIDER LINE, SHOWING THAT THIS LP HAS JUST NOT BEEN PLAYED MORE THAN A COUPLE OF TIMES SINCE NEW
THE VINYL
THE VINYL HAS RETAINED ALL OF OF ITS ORIGINAL LUSTRE AND LOOKS SUPERB.
IT IS CLEAR THAT THIS LP HAS BARELY BEEN PLAYED .
LOOKS COMPLETELY FLAWLESS IN DAYLIGHT
AND EVEN UNDER SPOTLIGHTS IT LOOKS PERFECT
THE TEST PLAY
SUPERB STEREO SOUND BOTH LOUD AND CRISP.
THERE IS NO DISTORTION TO THE SOUND ENSURING THAT THE VINYL WAS PLAYED WITH A CORRECTLY GRADED STYLUS.
ABSOLUTELY NO CLICKS OR TICS OR POPS ANYWHERE
THERE IS ALSO NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE
NO BACKGROUND CRACKLING WHATSOEVER
SILENT STATIC FREE LINKING GROOVES OVER BOTH SIDES
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS VINYL MINT
TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND GRADE IT FOR YOURSELF
