This particular copy is an official RCA test pressing (pressed in England by Decca), featuring their standard "Factory Sample NOT FOR SALE" label with details of the record hand written on the label, also included is a plain white card sleeve - see photo.
Professionally cleaned on my Moth record cleaning machine and then put in a fresh new poly-lined inner sleeve.
CONDITION:
VINYL = EX- (No deep scratches, groove damage, excessive surface noise, distortion, etc. Light spindle trails on the label suggests that this LP has had fairly light use. Looking at the vinyl under a bright grading lamp reveals a few light surface marks/paper scuffs, but they do not correspond to any audible defects. Mostly plays strong and clean, without serious interuptions from clicks, distortion or pronounced surface noise, etc. As the record plays throughout it's duration there is the odd very occasional faint tick or other extraneous noise in the background, but nothing serious enough to really ruin the listening experience.
Note: for the purposes of this listing I have tested this LP on my Linn LP12 Sondek turntable - generally this is quite a critical test, but I must point out that I cannot guarantee exactly how this LP will sound on your turntable - common sense for most... but then this is ebay!!!)
SLEEVE, ETC = EX- (Both the sleeve and labels are all in pretty good condition. All have details of the record hand written on them as part of the test pressing process. The sleeve have also yellowed quite a bit - see photos for more info)
NOTE: I must point out that we are actually a long standing physical record shop, with many decades worth of selling, trading and grading records under our collective belts. Unlike so many of the jokers now selling records on ebay, we know how to grade records. Before bidding, please read my description carefully, decide how much this record is worth to you and place you max bid accordingly. Please also feel free to check out my feedback from the many other successful transactions I have made in the past.
ANY QUESTIONS? PLEASE DON'T HESITATE TO GET IN TOUCH!
HAPPY BIDDING!!!!!
