The price is being reduced step by step. This is an extremely rare South African record of The Beatles' masterpiece (at the time, a controversial one?), commonly known as the White Album. It's in such good condition that it's hard to believe that it's a half-century old record and a South African press. Birthday is written twice, and Revolution is written incorrectly as a double (total triple) because there are no 1 and 9, and both are written as Revolution. It's stereo, but the sound is great.
I don't know if there was a typo in the 1st pressing, but the 1st pressing of the South African version has no branch number, and is YEX 709, YEX 710, etc. (It seems that there are some top-open 1st pressings with Mato 3 on the C side as well), and branch numbers 1 and 2 do not seem to exist.
The matrix below is probably 2nd or 3rd press, but it is also very strange that it is handwritten.
YEX 709-3
YEX 710-3
YEX 711-4
YEX 712-4
The jacket is open on the sides, so I don't think this is the 1st one either.
There are some stains and stains on the inside, but there is no major damage.
The most important thing is the disc, but overall it is in such good condition that it is hard to believe that it was made almost 60 years ago and in South Africa.
There is a slight hairline, but in my environment (AT-VMN95E), although there are occasional places where you can feel some noise, there is nothing fatal, and overall the playback is very good.
The above is a very unique record, and since it is unlikely that it will ever be available in the future (I don't think it would be possible for a South African record to be in this condition), the price is for reference only.
If you buy in bulk, we will reduce the price slightly.
Of course, there are no fatal playback defects here, but the actual playback condition, such as how the sound is perceived, will vary depending on the playback environment, such as the shape and wear of the stylus tip, cartridge characteristics, arm settings, stylus pressure, and even the combination of the overall playback equipment.
As you can see from our past reviews, our feelings seem to be similar to those of the purchaser, but please only purchase if you understand the characteristics of used records.
I don't smoke and don't have pets.
thank you.
