Description
This is a scare original Sun 78 of Carl Perkins GONE GONE GONE.
The Gone Gone Gone side looks V++, and plays even better. No real scratches or digs.
The Let The Jukebox Keep Playing is shot-it looks like it is G at best. It has a dark coating of something on it, and I reluctantly put my needle on it for about 15 seconds. It plays, but it has a lot of background noise. It might be able to be cleaned because I don't think it is wear related, and there are no big scratches, but it definitely is not right.
78 Grading/Condition
E+ My highest grade. A near perfect copy with no groove wear.
E Very little groove wear and only slight signs of use.
E- Slight groove wear and signs of handling.
E-- A little more worn than E-.
V++ Obvious signs of play and groove wear but not "beat-up".
V+ Well-played with some graying in the grooves.
V Very well played with graying in the grooves and a fair amount of surface noise.
V- Beat up and noisy but playable.
Lower grades include: G+, G, G-, F and P. These records have little surface sheen and a lot of surface noise. P indicates a record that is completely gray and has little or no playability.
78s often have problems that are less common with LPs or 45s and should be noted.
These include:
Digs: A dug-out part of the playing surface. Indicate whether or not a dig "passes" that is, whether or not it causes a skip or repeat (it is assumed that most digs will cause at least some surface noise).
Lams: Cracks in the lamination of the record; indicate whether or not these affect play and how large or long they are (or how many if you want to be really strict on grading).
Cracks: Indicate whether or not the crack is a "hair" crack or a large crack and, of course, whether or not it affects play.
Ticks: Indicate any "ticks" during play and how many grooves tick.
Edge chip/flake: A chip is a piece broken off BOTH SIDES of a record; a flake is a piece broken off ONE SIDE. Indicate whether or not the chip or flake is into the grooves or not and, if so, how many grooves and what effect it has on the playing surface.
Needle runs: Indicate if the needle has run onto the label and caused label damage.
Skips and repeats: Indicate any of these, of course, as well as any other defects that you would indicate when grading an LP or 45, especially SCUFFS AND SCRATCHES, particularly for grades above V+.
For grades below V+, most buyers will assume the record has some scuffs or scratches. If you want, you can mention whether or not the scuffs and/or scratches affect play, especially if they are very heavy.
Heat: Note any heat damage and its effect on play, if any. Warping should be noted separately.
PAYMENT: Paypal only.
