TAKE THE TIME TO VIEW ALL
PHOTOS AND READ ALL DETAILS
INCLUDING SHIPPING DETAILS
All photos I have taken myself
of exactly what you will get
Sorry for such poor grainy pictures
simply due to very cheap phone camera
The actual items look better (honest)
Hello folks, My name is Bob aka Smedley.
Although I "was" in the 80s to mid 90s,
I am not a dealer or business anymore.
I'm only an old dude who has always
LOVED vinyl records and just started
selling off my collection on eBay as
suggested by my boss "wife".....
YES, my listings are long and boring
but I pride myself on accurate and honest details on all levels. View ALL photos for details I will be open and honest with any flaws and/or defects if any in the details below. PLEASE feel free to ask any questions
before buying as all sales are final.
Every vinyl record I sell has been 100%
tested, played and enjoyed by me personally
all the way through on both sides. I can't say or guarantee how it will play on YOUR turntable.
As you probably know grading vinyl records remains very
subjective from one listener to another also depending on the turntable, arm adjustments, cartridge and stylus/needle.
Among others out there the most common are
*Magnetic phono cartridge : Common stylus are the Elliptical stylus and Conical
*Ceramic phono cartridge : Common stylus, Diamond and Sapphire stylus
My personal turntable settings are as follows.....
COUNTERWEIGHT *Elliptical stylus 2.0 *Conical stylus 2.25 - 2.5
ANTI-SKATE *Elliptical stylus 2.0
*Conical stylus 2.25 - 2.5
I try my best to price my listings very fair. In fact because I am not a dealer who buys and ships in bulk, I actually lose money because of buying individually for just myself.
....Thank you for looking and have a nice day.
BEATLES '65 Rare 1964 Early MONO Pressing Capitol Records # T-2228 Very nice clean early copy A real true gem for any BEATLES fan/collector
THE VINYL
VISUALLY
Some visible very light scratches, marks and/or scuffs but still has a very nice gloss and overall looks really nice and clean.
AUDIBLY
Audio has some typical surface noise here and there but still overall VERY enjoyable listening on my 2 turntables
THE COVER
As seen in photos the cover has some typical wear and tear as well as discoloration due to age. Still pretty nice in my humble opinion especially for being an early pressing. NOTE,
I do not judge/grade covers so please view all
photos closely and judge/grade for yourself. I will be including a clear plastic outer sleeve to help prevent more wear.
Has Original Inner CAPITAL Inner Sleeve has some wear and tear but still very nice in my opinion. I'm including a nice anti-static inner sleeve as well.
Many Beatles fans/collectors "like myself" actually prefer the MONO release better than the stereo. A FULLER SOUND AND PHONICS THAN THE STEREO IN MY HUMBLE OPINION ♫☺♫
