Description
Up for your consideration is a 10 inch, 78 rpm record on the Chess Record Label #1490 (U-7358) Artist: Muddy Waters and his Guitar Side A: She Moves Me: Grade V Side B: Early Morning Blues: Grade V- Condition: V/V-
I grade conservatively and below is the scale I use to determine the condition of the record.
Grading:
- N. As new and unplayed (there are virtually no 78s that can categorically be claimed to be unplayed).
- N-. Nearly Mint, but has been played. No visible signs of wear or damage.
- E+. Plays like new, with very, very few signs of handling, such as tiny scuffs from being slipped in and out of jackets.
- E. Still very shiny, near new looking, with no visible signs of wear, but a few inaudible scuffs and scratches.
- E-. Still shiny but without the lustre of a new record, few light scratches.
- V+. An average condition 78 in which scuffs and general use has dulled the finish somewhat. Wear is moderate but playing is generally free from distortion. Surface noise not overly pronounced
- V. Moderate, even wear throughout, but still very playable. Surface noise and scratches audible but not intrusive.
- V-. Quite playable still, but distortion and heavy greying in loud passages. Music remains loud in most passages. Surface noise and scratches well below music level.
- G+. Grey throughout but still serviceable. Music begins to sound muffled. Heavy scratches.
- G. Quite seriously worn and scratched, but music level is still higher than surface noise.
- G-. Music still prominent, but wear and scratch damage extensive.
- F. Most of music remains audible over surface noise, but listening now uncomfortable.
- P. Unplayable.
The record will be placed between four pieces of cardboard, wrapped in bubble wrap and then floated with packing material in a cardboard box for shipment. I have a lot of experience in shipping 78 rpm records and they will arrive to you safe and sound.
If you have any questions please contact me and I combine shipping on multiple purchases.
