Guns N' Roses – Appetite For Destruction

Mine is the variant 2 Sterling etched copy. I was abit worried on intial inspection as side 2 appears non filled and the 2nd disc is a little dish warped however the pressing is more than quiet enough with no nasties. The mastering definately benefits from being spread onto a 3rd side but the etching is kinda meh. Packaging is very decent too. Probably the best vinyl edition of this classic album to date!

I think images are completly wrong. It's an european release and it's shown a japanese one.

I think it sounds lika a cassette recording from or in a metall tin. Not an audiophile romantic edition. Party if you like casette on Metall.

Just got a sealed copy of this today, there's so much noise even before the music starts it's unbearable. Going to return it.

Anyone else experience the hologram looking like they took a wire brush to the entire side? Its just a giant circle of circles on my pressing, I am returning it but hoping this isn't an issue with a ton of copies?

This record does sound very good. But how can they call this audiophile if they cut the lacquer from a high res digital transfer of the original master tapes rather than cutting from the actual analog masters?

Download still works , i unpacked my Copy today :) 4 Years Later

I purchased this based on someone commenting that they didn't go for the loudness wars with this remaster. Big mistake.

Not sure if this is the same pressing I've gotten - the pink is similar enough that I have to assume it's the right version.
For a bootleg, this is pretty good! Bit of a cosmetic warp in my pressing but nothing crazy. It's really nice to have a copy with the original cover and on color vinyl, even better that the sound isn't abysmal like some other bootlegs. Overall - don't be put off by this if you see one in the wild. The sound is pretty good, especially when a new copy maybe isn't quite as accessible ($40+ for a 2xLP version with a hologram seems a little overkill to me...).

I have this same LP from G N R and I would say it is a bootleg.A very good fake record though . According to the record shops owner I got it from it is a bootleg . He told me about it before buying it . Got it for 18€ in NMint condition, so not that bad.He also told me that there were some German guys making this bootleg and dealing with it.
