VINYL

PLAYTEST

The LP plays really well, apart from 3 pips in the middle of side 2 and some feint background noise in some of the quieter moments.

Playtest grade is EX.

Visual

Visually the record is graded as EX, unmarked apart from a feint surface mark in the middle of side 2.

There are a couple of feint record sleeve surface scuffs that can be seen under a spotlamp.

None of these affect the audio.

COVER

The cover is graded VG and was not laminated.

There is some ringwear on the back cover and to a lesser extent the front cover.

The front cover has marks where 2 labels have been removed - please see photos.

The edges and corners have wear due to the non-laminated cover and its age.

The spine is better with all the lettering visible, apart from some wear spots on part of the record number text.

THERE IS NO INSERT WITH THIS LP.

Please see my feedback on selling LPs over the last couple of years.

The record will be packed in a stiff package specifically designed for sending vinyl throught the post, with added protection on the corners
