Ringo Starr Ringo Apple Records SWAL3413 (0698)

I just cleaned this album on my VPI 16.5 record cleaner and then played it on my He-Man Rig which consists of a Rega Planar Three with an Ortofon X5-MC cartridge on an RB-300 tone arm with a Valee PA-12B phono preamp / preamp feeding two ArtSound 805 monoblocks. This pressing has lightly-moderate surface noise audible in quiet passages and barely-audible in voice-level passages. As you can see, there are a few scratches, but They are more cosmetic than anything else. A 7 out of 10. IF YOU FEAR DAMAGE OR LOSS OF PARCEL IN TRANSIT, PLEASE INSURE THEM! OUR SHIPPING RESPONSIBILITY ENDS WHEN THE PARCEL IS ACCEPTED AND SCANNED BY THE US POSTAL SERVICE. ETSY IS CLEAR ON THIS. SOMETIMES THERE ARE INITIAL SCANNING DELAYS.
