That's pretty harsh.
Recent vinyl records actually have a pretty good frequency response.

It's actually the dust motes that contribute the most to the "vinyl
feel". It should be fun to simulate that, actually.
Should be like... lemme see... white noise shot through narrow and tall
envelopes. Pretty much like the attack phase of the piano sound, except
that the parameters are different (hence it sounds more like "plastic"
than "metal").
