Sonny Rollins; 3 Giants! Prestige 7291; DG; RVG etch; Bergenfield; Early MONO

Description: Okay copy, but has a few pressing bubbles in it. See below for more detail: VINYL: VG (6.5 of 10) Early MONO pressing; RVG hand etched, DG, Bergenfield address. There's a few light scuffs and a small cluster of pressing bubbles/imperfections. It plays generally well, but has some light crackles/noise from bubbles. Decent gloss, though. COVER: VG+ (7.5 of 10) Tight seams and spine, no splits. Corners have some wear, and there's general aging/storage wear. Gloss is great, though. A competent copy overall. _______Now the standard messages: GRADING: Yes I use standard grading. HOWEVER, I will NEVER use the word "mint" or "near mint" to describe a used LP ... sorry, won't do it. The highest I go is VG+. I use a number after to more represent a combination of how the vinyl looks and how it sounds. 10 is the best. I'll describe what I see in addition. I've found the combination of these two can minimize expectation gaps. But ask questions when in doubt. CLEANING: Yes. All vinyl is cleaned ... on my own machine I made. Vacuum machine. I wash and rinse with my own formula cleaners -- once with my enzyme cleaner, and rinsed with my own distilled water/alcohol formula. ... this process has worked for me for years. TESTING: Yes, but not the whole album. I've listened to passages of records I sell. I do NOT listen to the entire album. I DO play passages, testing for any clear distortion, groove wear, crackles, pops, etc. But no, the entire LP is not played through it's entirety. I play on a Lenco L70, via AT MM cart; tube preamp, a Dynaco ST-70 all tube amp to Klipsch speakers. An super tubey setup, right!? SHIPPING: Free anywhere Media Mail, domestic. Overseas is BY WEIGHT, so check that weight before bidding, you overseas-ers! LPs shipped in a proper box with plastic sleeve, and yes, vinyl shipped outside the sleeve. RETURNS: Generally a no go, unless you have a compelling reason. But if there's a serious problem, I'm sure we can figure it out with a return. I mean, I am an adult ... allegedly. But I do try to describe accurately, offer time for questions, and I deal in used records, not new stuff ... yes, it's always kind of a gamble buying via eBay, which is why I try to do my best to make an objective attempt to describe the LP in question. ASK QUESTIONS WHEN IN DOUBT. I promise, we can make this an easy transaction
