THE BEATLES - ABBEY ROAD 1st German pressing on the Apple Label3 Stamper Matrixes A1 and B1 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Some general remarks: Another favorite of mine. Their last album (Let it be only contained leftovers from the Abbey Road sessions). I own several copies of this album including the UK 1st pressing and the US 1st pressing. The German A1/B1 sounds every bit as good as my other copies. Thick junk of Vinyl and a clear, vibrant and strong sound. I grade my records on top notch equipment, using the expensive Lyra Kleos MC-cartridge. It reveals everything from any Vinyl which sometimes can be a curse, especially with 40+ year old records. When I grade a record as Excellent, I am pretty sure many other sellers would not hestitate to call it Near Mint. When I give a record the "Near Mint" grading it is practically flawless. I am collecting Vinyl since 35+ years and own hundreds of records from the day they came into the shops. I clean all records on my Keith Monks RCM II and add the Nagaoka N102 protective sleeve to each record. The Vinyl: NEAR MINT Plays clean, loud and strong. The Labels: VG+ There is a small white area on the green Apple on side 1 (see picture) and a date written in small letters on the other side, hence the downgrading. Otherwise clean. read more
