Description
For Auction - Fess Williams Royal Flush Orchestra on Vocalion 1058. Songs on this 1926 Jazz (Dance) 78RPM record include High Fever and Atlanta Black Bottom. The record has great shine, no chips or cracks, and visually grades EX. The audio is great (about an 8 out of 10) on both songs (some light background static). Please see pics for record label condition. To be provided with the Vocalion sleeve shown in the last pic (some clear tape on the sleeve). Please see my grading system (below).
Please email me if you have any questions. I accept paypal. Please see my other listings. I combine shipping costs.
My Grading System (Visual)
NM (Almost perfect but not quite. May have very, very light superficial scuffs, needle drags,stains, etc. but nothing even approaching "fingernail").
EX++ (Almost NM but not quite. Might have more superficial scuffs, needle drags, stains, etc. than the NM grade).
EX+ (Will have a few superficial scuffs, needle drags, stains, etc. but nothing "fingernail").
EX (Will have some superficial scuffs, needle drags, stains, etc. but nothing "fingernail").
VG++ (Might have some scuffs, needle drags, stains, etc. that are "fingernail" but are not deep and do not negatively impact the audio).
VG+ (Scuffs, needle drags, stains, etc. are more pronounced than the VG++ grade).
VG (Might have scuffs, needle drags, stains, etc. that you can distinctly feel with your fingernail and cause some ticks).
VG- (Slightly worse than the VG grade).
I visually grade 78’s more liberally (scuffs, needle drags, stains, etc.) than 45’s or 33’s because they are more “forgiving” (audio) to these imperfections.
I also take the audio into consideration when a given record is "between" visual grades. For example if the visual grade is between a VG++ and EX and the audio is EX I might give the visual grade an EX. However, if the audio was good (not EX or GREAT) I would give the visual grade a VG++. I have experienced situations where a given record was visually EX++ but the audio was about a 5 or 6 out of 10. This and similar situations prevents buyers from receiving good looking records (visual) but with inferior sound.
My Grading System (Audio)
I use an Audiotronics 304A for audio grading. Keep this in mind if you have a “high-dollar” system or a system that highly discriminates various imperfections. To some degree, the same record will sound different on different players.
EX (The audio is about an 8 or 9 out of 10).
GREAT (The audio is about a 7 or 8 out of 10).
GOOD (The audio is about a 6 or 7 out of 10 with some light ticks probable).
