ROLLING STONES RESPECTABLE 3:06............EMI STUDIOS ABBEY ROAD MASTERING LACQUER, ACETATE, DUB PLATE, 1-sided 7" Disc!!!

This is an Ultra-rare 1-sided 7" EMI STUDIOS ABBEY ROAD MASTERING UK ACETATE (see description below on acetates) in a plain cardboard heavy slip cover as shown. The track is as follows:  "Respectable" with timing as marked at 3:06. Only a few of these discs would have been produced.  This is in Excellent condition with nice shiny surfaces, both sided with some wear(see pictures). The disc has one noticeable mark on it as shown in photos 3 and 4.  Photo 4 is taken on an angle to show that the depth of the mark is not severe (see where the disc is partially removed from the protective inner sleeve to expose the area of the mark mentioned. With that having been said, this is a coated metal core disc and is not intended for excessive plays due to the fragile nature of  the coating material. I am VERY particular (check my feedback) and this is not like many of the trashed acetates you see for sale that are dull in finish from having been played like a record over and over.  This is also guaranteed to be authentic and not one of the many "fakes" being produced in texas and elswhere and sold on Ebay these days. I have stored this disc out of the light in a protective sleeve and in a smoke-free environment.  Each acetate which is produced is unique (see comments on acetates below). Don't miss out on this rare opportunity to obtain an amazing acetate.

Description excerpt below taken from the book "Rare Rock A Collectors Guide" by Tony Rees

"Acetates: Aluminum discs of various sizes (7, 10 or 12 inch) with a thin coating of shellac or vinyl.  These discs are not pressed like regular vinyl issues.  Instead, they are INDIVIDUALLY cut by the master cutter as a "pre" test pressing to give directions as to how the final cut should go.  As such, EACH acetate is unique, and acetates constitute some of the rarest items in the whole field of record collecting."

Additional information on "Acetates" obtained from a UK seller's description on their site.

"Acetate/Lacquer Is usually a reference cut that is made on ultra high-grad methyl cellulose sprayed onto thick aluminum discs. Reference acetates are primarily to make certain the record will sound somewhat like the tape. Often they are also made to allow a club or radio disc-jockey to play the music on turntables before it has been pressed as a normal record. Acetate is a misnomer (but frequently used!). It is actually a Lacquer."
