THE RECORDS

THE LABELS

THE RED  LABELS ARE IN MINT CONDITION/ PRISTINE BASE COLOUR THAT FULLY STRETCHES INTO AN UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE BLACK TYPEFACE AND LOGO'S ARE ALSO FREE FROM ANY RUBBING. THERE ARE NO SPIDER LINES BY THE SPINDLE HOLE ON EITHER DISC. THERE IS STILL RESIDUAL SHARDS OF VINYL INSIDE THE SPINDLE HOLE

THE VINYL

THE RECORDS ARE IN A PERFECT AND SHINY CONDITION AND LOOKS FLAWLESS IN DAYLIGHT. UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THEY STILL LOOKS PERFECT. NO LINES OR WISPS AT ALL. A STUNNING UNPLAYED MINT PAIR OF RECORDS 

PLAYING THE RECORD

I BELIEVE THAT IF YOU ARE GOING TO SPEND YOUR MONEY ON A FANTASTIC COLLECTABLE VINYL, THAT YOU SHOULD BE GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO HEAR WHAT YOU ARE BUYING. I HAVE THEREFORE INVESTED IN THE SOFTWARE THAT ALLOWS YOU TO DO JUST THAT.

I HAVE RECORDED JUST THE FIRST SIDE FROM START TO FINISH, TO TEST THE QUALITY 

THE LP PLAYS THROUGH BRILLIANTLY , AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW FANTASTIC THIS LP SOUNDS.

THERE IS NO DISTORTION TO THE SOUND WHATSOEVER,SHOWING THAT THE FEW PLAYS THAT THIS ALBUM HAS RECEIVED HAS BEEN COMPLETED WITH A STYLUS THAT WAS BOTH UNWORN, AND TRACKING AT THE CORRECT WEIGHT.

THERE IS NO HEAVY BACKGROUND CRACKLE AT ANY POINT AND NO LOUD CLICKS

NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE , AND NO STATIC EITHER IN THE LINKING GROOVES

NO DUST POPS OR STATIC TICS.

I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS VINYL MINT

BUT PLEASE TAKE A LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOUR SELF AGAINST YOUR OWN STANDARDS

THE SLEEVE

NON LAMINATED GATEFOLD SLEEVE

THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND CLEAN. AND THE COLOURS ARE STILL RICH AND VIBRANT. NO RUBBING OR SCUFFS TO THE SURFACE

THE FOUR CORNER TIPS ARE SHARP AND SQUARE WITH A THE TINIEST SPECK OF RUB TO TOW OF THEM. THERE IS NO RING WEAR, JUST A SLIVER OF RECORD SHAPE UNDER THE TOP EDGE

THERE ARE TWO TINY PRESSURE LINES BY THE SPINE. NONE ON THE TOP EDGE . ONE ON THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND ZERO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE

THE TOP EDGES ARE FULLY COLOURED, NO DAMAGE, NO WEAR, AND NO RUB EVEN TO THE CORNER TIPS. 

 THE BOTTOM EDGES ARE ALMOST AS PERFECT, ALTHOUGH THE FRONT ONE HAS SOME LIGHT RUB TO THE CORNER AREAS 

THE SPINE IS FLAT AND FREE FROM SQUASHING . THE TYPEFACE IS PERFECT AND THE TIP ENDS ONLY HAVE THE TINIEST SPECK OF RUB

THE OPENING EDGES ARE  STILL RAZOR SHARP AND LOOKS AS GOOD AS NEW

THE REAR SURFACE IS EVERY BIT AS PRISTINE AS THE FRONT.

OPENING THE GATEFOLD REVEALS TWO PRISTINE INNER PANELS

THE  TWO PICTURE INNER SLEEVES ARE BOTH FLAT AND CREASE FREE. NO SEAM SPLITS EITHER

I AM PERFECTLY HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE NEAR MINT

GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
