The gold leif numbered editions will be limited to 5000 copies in stereo (limit: 2 per customer) and 1500 copies in mono (limit 1 per customer). The records will be housed in deluxe slip-case packaging, but more importantly, the records will be pressed "by hand" on the Finebuilt press using Clarity Vinyl. You can watch the process here narrated by QRP's Gary Salstrom, who explains the difficulties involved in the special plating and pressing and the super high quality that will result from all of the special care involved in producing these heavy weight, flat profile records.
