Introduce a fascinating piece of rock rarity to your setup with this hard-to-find edition of Guns N' Roses' "Civil War". Manufactured in 1993 strictly for commercial UK jukebox distribution rather than retail shelves, this elusive Geffen Records release carries the catalogue number GFS 43. This uncommon early-nineties pressing stands as the only way to own the single on a 7-inch format. Unlike the standard commercial market which only received CD and 12-inch vinyl editions, this industrial pressing features durable black machine-moulded plastic labels designed specifically to withstand automatic handling.

The audio engineering and matrix details on this 45 rpm record provide excellent credentials for serious vinyl buyers. Stamped deep into the runout grooves on both sides are the pristine initial 01-1- Q1 matrix sequences, verifying this as an authentic first-batch jukebox press. Side A delivers the powerful, epic "Civil War" (LP Version), whilst Side B backs it with the frantic energy of "Garden Of Eden" (LP Version). Grading at Very Good Plus (VG+), the injection-moulded labels and vinyl show a number of superficial marks entirely consistent with vintage jukebox use, whilst the playback remains strong and clear.

Sourcing genuine 1990s home-market jukebox vinyl in play-ready condition presents a real challenge, as most copies were run heavily in pubs and arcades until worn out. Serving as a crucial anthem from the band's peak creative period, this distinctive black-label pressing is a super addition to any serious hard rock archive. Lock down this scarce, historic British pressing for your personal collection today.
