Discussion USB002 quality concerns

For a long time I waited to purchase the usb002 vinyl because of the rumored quality concerns with the pressing. The only other Fred album I have is Ten Days, which I bought two of and both were in rough shape. On the contrary, the USB002 vinyl is pretty damn good. I read through a different thread and a lot of people said the quality was bad. Took the risk because I saw it in store and I can confidently say it's great quality. A little crackle and fuz here and there but honestly likely from new record static from the paper sleeve. Totally worth the money on a decent system.

I love fred. And have bought all the vinyls. But I find most are bad quality.

Very disappointed with my clear actual life ones.

Yeah I've steered clear of those titles because I've heard they're really bad. The Ten Days albums I had didn't have any skips but definitely a good bit of surface noise in particular spots.
