GRADING PROCEDURE
Before grading a record, I may clean it with a maintained Nitty Gritty vacuum cleaning machine using non-alcoholic Record Research fluid.Expect a crisper, richer and cleaner play!

1) A bright light is on over the turntable

2) Each side is viewed then determined whether it needs cleaning

3) The record is tilted in the light to see if any mark is penetrating the grooves

4) The record is play tested in the beginning, in-between tracks, and quiet ages, to listen for its quality

5) If background noise is detected, further play is given to determine severity of deterioration, and then graded.

ABOUT WEAR OF VINYL RECORDS
Scratches that can penetrate the record’s groove is not the only problem when testing for quality. The needle or cartridge used can be a major culprit to hiss, pops, and clicks. Thus many records have deteriorating factors, without any visual scratches at all, especially the records used in the 60’s and 70’s. Audiophile technology had not yet been advanced with the invent of the lightweight cartridge. In those days, pennies, nickels or even quarters were placed on top of the needle to make it play more efficient. This added weight wore down the grooves, and created a hissing and crackling sound.

ABOUT ORIGINAL FIRST PRESSINGS
Original first pressings are almost always the best pressing. The sound quality is deeper, richer, and bolder and thus, more enjoyable!
1) The musicians were there first hand while it was being produced and engineered

2) Reissues are produced by engineers not the artists, and do not have a stake in the quality, like the musicians do.

3) The creative artists and sound engineers work together in collaboration to attain the best end result.

4) The original master tapes are brand new and never stored, thus there is no deterioration of sound.

5) Because of the better quality sound, there is a much higher demand for these first pressings.

As a result, 1st pressing have the highest quality sound than most subsequent issues
