    I don't see how this can be considered the true Japan 1st press when the earliest pressings used red vinyl. Thoughts?

      Can anyone confirm that there's a tape warble on side two?

        The vinyl is quieter than a librarian's tea room. Bass is plentiful except maybe on silver hammer. I also have the EAS Japanese pressing of Abbey Road, and this one has much more middle and middle-high frequency detail. This AP pressing seems to be well done.

          This is a remarkable pressing, I couldn't believe it amazing.
