THE JIMI HENDRIX EXPERIENCE - Are You Experienced?

Item Description

Vinyl, , Santa Maria pressing
LP Album Stereo

Original US stereo issue with Tri-color Reprise label.

Small "o" on runout identify this is mastered by Customatrix [l586613]

Vinyl is from the Santa Maria pressing plant for the following reasons:
1) that plant had the slightly pronounced secondary ring of 0.4375" diameter as on one of the sides.
2) the die-cut center hole on the label appears to be 0.290" diameter (drill size 'L') which that plant used (both Pitman's and Terre Haute's die-cut center labels at the time were 0.281" or 0.28125" diameter depending on which drill size they used - 'K' for the former, 9/32" for the latter), thus you can see a small snippet of the vinyl as we get to the spindle hole.
3) the indent of the 2.703125" pressing ring has more in common with Santa Maria too.
4) -1F and -1H dash numbers have been confirmed to be on another variant entry on here which was identified as from Santa Maria.

There isn't anything resembling an "S", forwards or backwards, in the runouts.

Sleeve has a small bold number "4" printed in the lower right corner on back. The "4" on back of sleeve indicates Imperial Packing, Indianapolis, IN ("4").

Comes with a printed inner sleeve with adverts for other Reprise Records releases.

Catalogue number:
- 6261 on front cover
- RS-6261 on back cover and spine
- RS 6261 on labels
