THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE WHITE LABELS ARE JUST MINT!! PURE WHITE COLOUR THAT HAS NO BLEMISHES WHATSOEVER. THE BLACK TEXT IS ALSO IN PRISTINE CONDITION. THERE ARE TWO SMALL SPIDER LINES VISIBLE AROUND THE SPINDLE HOLE
THE VINYL
THIS VINYL GLEAMS LIKE NEW, AND HAS LOST NONE OF ITS ORIGINAL LUSTRE. THERE ARE 5 SUPERFICIAL HANDLING LINES ON SID EONE AND JUST A COUPLE OF WISPY HAIRLINES ON SIDE TWO
PLAYING THE RECORD
I BELIEVE THAT IF YOU ARE GOING TO SPEND YOUR MONEY ON A FANTASTIC COLLECTIBLE 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 THE ENTIRE DISC FROM START TO FINISH AS I DO WITH ALL MY LISTINGS, AS I FIRMLY BELIEVE THAT BIDDERS WOULD LOVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE HEAR THE RECORD BEFORE LAYING A BID. THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS.
THE 12" PLAYS THROUGH BRILLIANTLY ON BOTH SIDES, 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 THIS SUPERB SOUND WHATSOEVER AT ANY POINT.
THERE IS NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE AT ANY POINT AND CERTAINLY NO LOUD CLICKS
THERE IS SOME LIGHT STATIC LIKE BACKGROUND DURING THE RUN IN AND LINKING GROOVES AND SOME OF THE MOST SILENT PASSAGES
I DIDN'T HEAR ANY MORE THAN 2-3 DUST POPS WHATSOEVER DURING THE PLAYTHROUGH
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS VINYL EXCELLENT PLUS
PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF AGAINST YOUR PERSONAL STANDARDS
