San Diego Vinyl Discovery 101: Master The Crates

If you have ever stood in front of a stack of records and felt a bit overwhelmed by where to start, this meetup is for you. We are getting together at a local San Diego record shop to demystify the process of digging through crates. Whether you just bought your first turntable or you have been collecting for a while but still struggle to find the hidden gems, this session is designed to help you navigate the shop with more confidence.

We will cover the basics of how to scan through LPs efficiently, what to look for when inspecting the condition of used vinyl, and how to spot pressings that might be worth your time. The goal is to keep things relaxed and helpful, giving everyone a chance to ask questions and learn from one another in a low-pressure environment. It is a great way to meet fellow local collectors who are just starting out on their analog journey.

Please RSVP if you think you can make it so we have a good idea of how many people to expect. We look forward to digging through some wax with you.
