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 very good condition. It has spindle marks visible on the labels but there are no pen marks, scuffs or major issues. Overall the labels are in a tidy condition with no major issues but with spindle marks as mentioned.
As for the vinyl itself, both sides have signs of use and age with some light scratches, light areas of groove wear, scuffing and general handling marks. The vinyl is not perfect visually and has some lines and marks present. The lines/scratches on the lp, although they can be seen in places cannot be felt. Overall a used vintage lp that is not perfect visually but also has no nasty or deep major marks/lines.
I play tested the record and it produced audio that was enjoyable throughout but was also not pristine. Firstly it lays flat on the deck and upon playing there was little to no arm movement.
The audio produced was a solid grade of 'VG' with no skips or sticks and no really disruptive annoying tics. There was some light splutters and mild surface noise in places such as the run ins, between tracks and some of the quieter passages. There was also a few light tics at the very end of track 2 on side 1, between tracks 2 and 3 and just into track 3. These are audible but are not really loud or severely disruptive. Overall a used lp that plays decent but is also not a perfect listen.
It contains its original lyric inner which is in very good+ condition with no tears, splits or pen marks but with minor signs of age and some light wear. The record will be sent in a brand new plain white replacement inner to ensure no further wear occurs to the original.
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.
