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 BECAISE I JUST KNOW THAT BIDDERS WOULD WELCOME THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR THE RECORD BEOFRE LAYING A BID.

THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS

THE LP PLAYS THROUGH SUPERBLY ON BOTH SIDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATES THE CRISP CLEAN MONO REPRODUCTION. JUST PURE FIRST PRESS MONO SOUND.

THERE IS NO DISTORTION TO THE SOUND WHATSOEVER AT ANY POINT DURING THE PLAYTHROUGH

THERE ARE NO SERIOUS BACKGROUND CRACKLES OR CLICKS EITHER

EVERY NOTE IS HEARD AS THE PRODUCER INTENDED AND BEARING IN MIND THIS ALBUM IS 347 YEARS OLD. IT IS QUITE STUNNING

WHAT YOU WILL HEAR IS SOME VERY VERY LIGHT STATIC LIKE BACKGROUND IN PLACES MAINLY IN THE QUIETER MOMENTS BUT NOT IN THE LINKING GROOVES.

A SUPERB VINYL THAT I AM HAPPY TO GRADE NEAR MINT

PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF 

THE SLEEVE

STUNNING E.J.DAY SLEEVE IS MAGNIFICENT CONDITION. THIS IS THE RARER SLEEVE AS MOST YOU WILL COME ACROSS ARE GARROD AND LOFTHOUSE

THE FRONT LAMINATED SURFACE GLEAMS LIKE NEW. I CAN TELL YOU THAT IN ADDITION TO NOT HAVING BEEN PLAYED MORE THAN TWICE, THE SLEEVE HAS BEEN HOUSED IN A PLASTIC OUTER FROM NEW WHICH HAS COMPLETELY PROTECTED IT

THE FRONT HAS NO CREASES OR BENDS WHATSOEVER. THERE IS NO LAMINATE PEEL, LIFT OR FLAKE, AND AMAZINGLY THERE ARE NO TINY LAMINATE LINES NEAR THE SPINE JUST ONE BARELY VISIBLE ONE ON THE BOTTOM EDGE. THE BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER TIP HAS LIGHTLY WORN

THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE 100% FREE FROM ANY SHELF WEAR

THE SPINE IS JUST IMMACULATE. TYPEFACE FULLY LEGIBLE, TOTALLY UNSQUASHED AND NO LAMINATE PEEL OR FLAKE

THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP AND CLEARLY SHOWS WHY THIS LP HAS BEARELY BEEN PLAYED

THE REAR SURFACE IS INCREDIBLY WHITE. THIS IS VERY HARD TO FIND LIKE THIS. THERE IS THE VERY VERY LIGHTEST TRACE OF HANDLING TO THE PERIMETER EDGES, AND THATS BEING REALLY PICKY

THE ORIGINAL RICE PAPER LINED INNER SLEEVE IS ALSO IN SUPERB ORIGINAL CONDITION. NOHEAVY CREASES, JUST ONE LIGHT WRINKLE IN THE BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER. NO SPLITS AND NO WEAR TO THE TOP OPENING EDGE

I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE NEAR MINT

GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
