Wonderful copy of SR90392, RARE GOLDEN PROMOTIONAL COPY ONLY!
Both sides play well, few tics and pops, overall record graded EX.
Cover graded NM-, no splits at spines, no writing on cover. Orginal inner sleeve.
I listen to the record before grading, both sides, no spot listening, both sides are judged for audio quality, flaws et al. All records cleaned 2-3 times (Kuzma washing machine) before listening starts, Nagaoka or MFSL rice paper sleeves for all records when put back into cover. Playback gear: Garrard 401, Ortofon AS-212 tonearm, Shure V15-III cartridge.
Record noise could get lower when more washing is done.
No return, private sale. But bid with confidence, my grading is conservative. Above all, no nonsense MINT gradings applied to records which are 50+ years old and as noisy as Mercuries and RCA generally used to be throughout the series.
Thanks for bidding!
