Description
- Original 1965 stereo pressing of this guitar extravaganza. These guys truly knew how to make those Mosrite guitars chime. Kind of cool that this was the pressing that was on the record store shelves during the holiday season exactly 60 years ago. Will ship within 24 hours of payment.
- Matrix / Runout (Side A runout etched, R stamped): BST-8038 A-1 R
- Matrix / Runout (Side B runout etched, R stamped): BST-8038 B-1 R
RECORD CONDITION: VG (This record plays a strong VG. Despite many superficial marks, none of which can be felt with a fingernail, the record plays with few unwanted distractions. I play-tested in its entirety thru headphones on quality playback equipment and the results were a total of a half dozen unobtrusive clicks on Side 1, two unobtrusive clicks on Side 2, and some surface crackle between songs on Side 1. Otherwise plays without flaw. Spindle trails on labels.)
COVER CONDITON: VG++ (Was in shrink when I obtained it. Removed dingy shrink to unveil a super clean cover - as clean as you'll find - with only some minor corner wear. See pics.)

- FOR THE NERDS
- Ultrasonic cleaned in Tergikleen solution, double rinsed on the VPI with distilled water, stored in a fresh poly-lined inner sleeve. All contents in a fresh outer sleeve. Vinyl packed outside cover for shipping.
See other auctions for more records. Shipping is $7 for first record. Add 75 cents for each additional record won.
Records are cleaned before being conservatively graded under direct bright light. I'm a longtime record collector and seller with high standards and a conscience, so bid with confidence. Please see feedback and happy bidding!
RECORD GRADING GUIDE NM Pristine. No marks on vinyl. Perhaps a light spindle trail on labels that give evidence of one or two plays. VG++ A superficial mark or two, typically hairlines or a faint scuff caused by being removed from a paper inner sleeve, that will not cause surface noise of any kind. VG+ A few more signs of use (light scuffs, hairlines), but nothing your eyes will tell you will cause significant or continuous surface noise. These typically will play NM throughout with only the kind of occasional click or pop that is often heard even on brand new records. No marks that can be felt with a fingernail. VG More obvious signs of play, but nothing that is going to affect playback in a significant way. Perhaps a mark that causes a few continuous clicks. Perhaps some occasional light surface noise at times and in between songs. If a mark or imperfection is observed and worth noting, it will be play-tested and the results will be posted along with the grade.
