Our 5-inch records can be played on your manual record player of choice at 33 rpm speed. Simply place the record on the turntable, turn it on, and place the needle at beginning of the grooves. No special stylus is needed and no need to fear extra wear and tear. If you are looking to buy a new player, we are currently loving our Debut S Pro from Pro-ject Audio.

To keep it brief, we use recycled metals that are formed into perfect circular blanks. Meanwhile, we make the stampers using our own direct metal mastering machine. The circular blanks are then pressed with the stampers at 10x the pressure vinyl is pressed at. Finally, we add the finishing details like the label and the nano-coating, which protects the records from weathering.

The band was involved at every step and you
will discover their touches throughout, including Gene’s opening letter in the
accompanying book.

All the precious metals are recycled. These metals were previously used in electronics, jewelry, coins, and industrial objects. They are separated and smelted into pure pellets. These pellets are turned into perfect blank records for pressing. Additionally, any excess precious metal from the production process is added back to this circular loop too.

These gold records are 8 times harder than vinyl. So they are not likely to break. Your diamond stylus is still harder than the record though and can result in scratching. To avoid scratching, the records include a generous lead-in and lead-out groove, so you can avoid scratching the record's grooves when placing or lifting the needle.

These records are 5 inches in diameter. The gold-plated records are 7 ounces of copper plated in .997 pure gold. The solid gold records are 8 ounces of .999 pure gold.

Each gold-plated record comes with a display box with a crystal glass window, a book with an exclusive letter from Gene, a record mat, a hand-numbered certificate, and a microfiber cleaning cloth, encased in an outer box honoring the song’s album art with intricate finishing and details​.

Each pure gold record comes with a coffee table display box with two drawers, one housing the record in a protective sapphire crystal glass capsule, and the other containing a signed book on Strutter, the gold-detailing pen used to sign the book, and additional accessories, such as a laser-engraved metal certificate of authenticity, a cork record mat, and a microfiber cleaning cloth. ​
