All records are graded to the Record Collector Guidelines, with extra information added as required when play tested. Also all photos above are of the exact record you will receive if purchased.
This record is in excellent condition. It has just a few faint spindle marks visible on the labels and there are no pen marks, stains or fading. There is slight wear around the centre of side 1 but this is minor and overall the labels are clean, bright and in nice shape.
As for the vinyl itself, both sides are nice and clean overall with nothing at all major or deep showing. There is a light lines showing on side 2 however, and a cluster of small light marks in track 1 of side 1. These are minor marks and cannot be felt but can be seen. Other than these there is the odd minor manufacturing mark and minor wispy lines but nothing major. Overall it has a few light marks/lines but nothing heavy and is certainly not showing excessive signs of use.
I play tested the lp and it played very well throughout. It lays flat on the deck and upon playing there is little to no arm movement. The audio is a strong grade of EX with no skips, sticks or annoying tics, and very little surface noise or interference of any sort. There is a little in the run ins on each side but the actual audio is excellent and of good clarity. Overall it plays well and was a great listen, with the light lines mentioned above having no affect on play.
The sleeve is in excellent- condition. It is solid and presentable all round with no major issues such as splits, tears, scuffs or pen marks anywhere. There is some bending to the top of the spine area however. This is not extreme though, and the spine(and other edges) show no major wear and are clearly legible. There is an import hole through the sleeve(showing front left corner area and rear bottom right corner area). There is also some minor discolouring in places, and a few minor creases. Please study the pictures provided to gain as much information as possible on its condition.
It includes its original Stax inner which appears pretty tidy but does have some minor creasing, a 2" split to the centre of the bottom edge and general signs of age. The original will be included but the record will be sent in a brand new plain white replacement.
I hope my photos are comprehensive enough but if you have any questions then don't hesitate to contact me. Also please check my eBay feedback for a positive history of record grading, A1 communication and quick delivery times.
