VINYL
PLAYTEST
The LP plays really well with just 3 pips on Side 1 track1 and 2 pips in the middle of side 2.
Record does not skip or jump.
In some of the quieter moments there is some feint background noise.
Playtest grade is EX.
Visual
Visually the record is graded as EX, with just some sleeve scuff surface streaks on side 2.
None of these affect the audio.
COVER
The cover is a gatefold and is graded EX- and was not laminated, but has no damage or writing or labels.
There is some feint partial ringwear on the front and back cover - please see photos.
The edges and corners have some wear due to the non-laminated cover and its age.
The spine is better with all the lettering visible.
Please see my feedback on selling LPs over the last couple of years.
The record will be packed in a stiff package specifically designed for sending vinyl throught the post, with added protection on the corners
