THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE BLACK LABELS ARE IN ABSOLUTELY PRISTINE CONDITION. THERE IS NOT A MARK OR STAIN ON THEM. THE BASE COLOUR FULLY EXTENDS INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE SILVER TYPEFACE IS PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THERE ARE NO SPIDER LINES WHATSOEVER NEAR THE SPINDLE HOLE
THE VINYL
THE VINYL IS JUST MINT. THERE IS NOT ONE MARK ON IT ANYWHERE,AND IN DAYLIGHT IT LOOKS TOTALLY FLAWLESS, AND EVEN UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE, AND IT'S CLEAR THIS HAS REMAINED UNPLAYED FOR 30 YEARS
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 ALBUM FROM START TO FINISH AS I DO NOW WITH ALL MY LISTINGS AS I BELIEVE THAT BIDDERS WOULD LOVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR THE RECORD BEFORE LAYING A BID. THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS
I DECIDED TO PLAY THIS PREVIOUSLY UNPLAYED VINYL BECAUSE UNPLAYED DOESN'T GUARANTEE MINT. I DO HOWEVER GUARANTEE THAT MY CAREFUL TEST PLAY WILL GO UNDETECTED
THIS IS TRULY A SUPERB AUDIO REPRODUCTION, FROM THIS VINYL
THERE IS NOT A JOT OF DISTORTION AT ANY POINT ON EITHER SIDE, AND THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS JUST MAGNIFICENT. LOUD AND CRYSTAL CLEAR, WITH EVERY NOTE HEARD EXACTLY AS IT WAS INTENDED.
THERE IS NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND NO VINYL NOISE
NO STATIC LIKE BACKGROUND EITHER
NO LOUD CLICKS AND I DIDN'T HEAR ANY DUST POPS WHATSOEVER
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS VINYL MINT !!!!
DON'T JUST TAKE MY WORD FOR IT, TAKE A LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF AGAINST YOUR OWN STANDARDS
