Spiritdance1995 Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 Hello everyone I recently came across a 7 inch single that has a misplaced hole situated to the right of the label's centre, where it is usually located. As far as I'm aware there is no method of playing this record without potentially damaging the needle of my record player, as well as the record itself. Should I throw it away? Should I keep it? Is it worth anything because of this error? Please let me know. Thanks for reading. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shitty Rambo Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 Place another 7" you don't care about on top of it as a template and drill it out! Plarocks and Satan 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I forgot to mention, this record has a large hole that requires a centre spindle adapter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could put another 7” (with a small spindle hole) on top as a guide to help center it. monsterrod, yelizuna, whoa and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shitty Rambo Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 Put styrofoam in the 45 cut out, line it up with a regular 7", jam a nail or pencil through the foam. You'll have your own specific adapter for that 1 single lol. yelizuna, copelandkid and MCDELTAT 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AsleepOnRocks Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 I've seen noise artists do this on purpose before. Two separate holes got two different listening "experiences". Is it possible that it's something like that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unknown pleasures Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 If it’s just misplaced maybe the right hole will show up some day. whoa, erasedtapes, lexicondevil and 1 other 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plarocks Posted September 25, 2019 Share Posted September 25, 2019 Just grab a copy of No Parlez from the dollar bin, and either hang the pic sleeve on the wall or just chuck it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
