Right channel only noise on a ew records


Every once in a while I get a record that has nasty "hashy" noise on only the right channel
the records played before and after it sound fine

it either lasts about 1/2 inch into the record or sometimes is pervasive over the whole side

what should I look for?

is this bad wear from a previous owner?
record off center?

thanks

If this is a problem with used LPs, I'd suspect the LP ... unless you're having this problem with other sources. You can never be sure what you're getting when you buy a used LP.

Have these LPs been properly cleaned before playing? Is your stylus clean?
