MCDELTAT Posted December 20, 2023 Share Posted December 20, 2023 Big sigh. I had an issue with my first tri-color copy where C/D was warped pretty badly. It caused the first half of tracks C1/D1 to skip. They luckily sent me another copy for free. Got it it in today. No warp, side C of played perfect. Almost put it away but decided to play side D. Track D1 still has a skip. This one is weird and looks like it happens right at the transition between two of the colors. I guess I’ll just sell both at discounts and hope to make up the $50 I payed for it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had a couple records with the second problem. Look reeeeally closely at the spot it is doing it. When this has happened to me in the past there was a little tiny piece of grit stuck in there that wouldn't come out with wet cleaning for whatever reason. Run a toothpick somewhat lightly over that spot and you may dislodge it. Worth a try at least if it already is unplayable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
