Description
Beautiful copy of Metallica’s classic fifth album. Ground breaking production and great songwriting combine with amazing results.
This copy has clearly been well looked after. Very little background interference - in most parts none whatsoever - the quiet intro and outro to Nothing Else Matters for example, plays through with amazing clarity.
A visually excellent vinyl with some minor hairlines and one or two marks under bright light but nothing that affects playback at all - audibly this is near Mint.
The outer sleeve and inner sleeves have minimal handling wear, retaining their vibrancy after nearly 30 years and grade as VG+ to near Excellent. The spine is fully readable and the minor edgewear and odd crease don’t detract too much from what is an attractive copy, particularly in its ‘clear glass’ plastic sleeve. Please check the photos and feel free to ask for more if needed.
The vinyls are now housed in generic white inners to preserve the originals and will be posted outside of the main sleeve to avoid seam splits in transit.
