I appreciated the detailed description
I appreciated the detailed description, I knew I was getting a floor model and it came in perfect shape at a much reduced cost. When I thought the cupholders weren't included, I reached out to them and then we found them and they were very responsive and thankful that I let them know. Everything is fine.

RSD find of Maggot Brain: 50th Anniversary Edition
Skipped out on most of the RSD releases today and stopped by my local store. Was just going to buy a couple local band cassettes and stumbled upon this. Really neat splatter on the LP and bonus clear 12".

Quality feedback on 50th anniversary pressing
The spatter record is a little quiet. The additional recordings on the clear 2nd LP are much better... like it is being played through the factory speakers from a 1993 Honda Civic. It's very digital, very hollow. It's really not a great pressing.

Comparison of various Maggot Brain pressings
The ACE release from 2014 on 180g vinyl (HIQLP 020) apparently 'not a disaster but sounds digital'. I prefer the 1990 version of SEW 002... it sounds fuller and more analogue. However HIQLP 020 sounds by far the best... soundstage is wider and deeper.
